Fortunately, there were still actors in Hollywood whom scandalous fame spared. Peter Facinelli became famous solely because of his talent. And, of course, beauty. The viewer is familiar with this actor in the vampire saga "Twilight", as well as his role in the series "Crime Racing". We offer a closer acquaintance with the personality of Peter Facinelli and find out in which films he still starred.
Curriculum Vitae
The future actor was born in the New York region of Queens on November 26, 1973. His parents in no way belonged to the acting environment. Mother was a housewife, raised Peter and his three older sisters. Father - an emigrant from Italy, worked as a waiter in a local cafe.
Peter Facinelli received his primary education at the Catholic School of New York, and then entered the theater college Tisch School of the Arts. His teachers were such famous artists as Felicity Huffman, William H. Macy and others. Being in the circle of celebrity, the young actor managed to show his talent favorably and soon he was also invited to act in films.
First films
Peter Facinelli got his first roles in the films "Angela", where he played Lucifer, and "False Fire", where his partner was Angelina Jolie, then a completely unknown girl.
The next role in the artist’s creative career was the comedy “Big deal”, where he collaborated with Danny de Vito. But, as it turned out, it was only half the success. Real fame fell on the actor after he played a major role in a comedy melodrama called "Can't Wait." He became the idol of millions, all young people imitated his style. Later, no less high-profile films were released with Peter Facinelli: The Seducer, Supernova, and The Scorpion King. All of them were a huge success and made a real Hollywood star out of a young and little-known actor.
A new stage of creativity
After success in a number of films, Facinelli begins to think about participating in a television show. It is worth noting that the actor already had little experience thanks to the series, released in 1995. It was a production of "Law and Order." But she did not bring him popularity.
The first project that expanded Peter's audience even more was the Crime Race TV show, which aired from 2002 to 2003. The next series with his participation is Client is Always Dead (2003-2005), and then followed by work in the short-term project "Fight", which aired in 2007.
Sex symbol and object of desire of young girls
Yes, yes, these are the words that characterize the new role of the actor, which he got after participating in the vampire saga "Twilight". The first film was released in large screens in 2008. In it, Peter Facinelli played the role of Carlisle Cullen. Despite the fact that the hero of the actor is the father of the whole vampire family, who was born in the XVII century, he is well preserved for his age and is still the object of desire of millions.
In the next four years, the artist took part in the filming of the continuation of the saga, playing his original role. After the triumph of the film, photos of Peter Facinelli were published in every first magazine, and the number of his fans became simply unimaginable.
Latest work
Dizzying success, huge fees and fame, oddly enough, did not break the actor. In order not to lose his talents and skills, he annually starred in new films and even takes part in the filming of the next series called "Chorus". Among the works to which Peter was involved in the period from 2012 to the present can be called the following:
- "Serb";
- Gallows Hill;
- "Walter";
- "Frostbite";
- as well as two series - "Supergirl" and "American Odyssey."
The mere participation of the Twilight stars in these films ensured their success and excellent payback. The actor is in the status, as they say, "like hot cakes" and continues to delight the viewer with his talented game.
