He fell many times, but rose and walked on. Many consider him a controversial figure in the cinema. Who are you, Mr. Simon Rex? Films in which you can meet the actor, his biography and interesting facts from life are in our article.
Funny boy
The future actor and showman was born on July 20, 1974. Almost all of his childhood and youth passed in the beautiful San Francisco, where for the first time in his life he joined the career of a presenter. Since studying at college, he has been actively involved in various productions and shows. Naturally, this experience was not superfluous in his formation as an actor. As a teenager, Simon Rex had an attractive appearance and never knew any problems in dealing with the weaker sex. This “feature” could threaten his future career as a TV presenter, and later played a trick on him. Student years are over, and at the same time, hobbies of acting have remained in the past. It was necessary to think about the future profession and approach this with all the responsibility that the joker and the jovial Simon Rex was capable of.

The beauty of the male body
When Simon Rex turned 18, he got into a modeling agency, which became his guide to the starry world of cinema. Surrounded by influential people, he gains fame and makes the necessary acquaintances, which in the future will be very useful to him. The work was quite intense, as I constantly had to maneuver between the US and Europe, which took a lot of free time. This brought a lot of money, but he was waiting for an offer to act in films, and not just pose in front of the lenses. After three years, he was invited to the famous American music channel, where he was waiting for the work of a TV presenter. Joy knew no bounds, according to memoirs, Simon Rex (photo of the actor you can find in this article) for a long time did not believe in his success.

Small to large screen
In 1999, Simon leaves the music channel and begins to upholster the thresholds of film studios in the USA, as he already clearly understands what he will do: he will become an actor. An ordinary, serious (or comedic - as it turns out) actor. And with porn to tie. Success is not long in coming, and in the same year he manages to get into the acclaimed series "Jack and Jill." Next were the famous series: "Rescuers Malibu", "Love of the Widower", "Eternal Summer". In all projects, he, as before, used his handsome appearance, many directors did not pay attention to his acting shortcomings, since the emphasis was placed on his external data. Rex manages to light up in the popular series "All the best in you", and it was this show that showed the acting capabilities of our star boy. After - a few small roles in "Blonde in Chocolate" and "Scary Movie". In 2010, the high point took place - Simon Rex got the main role in the fantasy thriller King Avenue.
