Seth Green Bio
Seth Green

Actor Seth Green was born on February 8, 1974 in Overbrook Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He grew up in the suburbs to an artist mother and a father who was a math teacher.

Seth made his first onscreen appearance as an infant, when he was featured in a video about natural childbirth. At age six, he began expressing an interest in acting after landing his first role in a play at summer camp. His uncle, who was a casting director, took note of his nephew’s interest and helped him to get parts in various commercials and television shows.

Green made his first “official” acting debut at the age of 10 in the 1984 film The Hotel New Hampshire. He played the role of Egg, the little brother to Jodie Foster and Rob Lowe’s characters. Green’s first starring role came in 1987, when he was cast in Woody Allen’s Radio Days. Seth received recognition for his appearance in the film, and was then cast in the classic teen flick Can’t Buy Me Love (1987) (originally titled: Boy Rents Girl), starring Patrick Dempsey. The following year he starred in My Stepmother Is an Alien with Alyson Hannigan.

Green’s acting career reached a lull in the early 90s. He appeared in various films that did not receive much recognition, and also appeared in small roles on television series’ such as The Wonder Years. By 1997, Green had been cast as Oz in the cult-classic series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Alyson Hannigan, with whom he had previously shared the screen in My Stepmother Is an Alien, played his love interest on the show. Coincidentally, Green had been cast in the original film version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1992) five years prior, but his scenes had been cut from the final version.

In 1998, Green returned to the big screen, starring in the Jennifer Love Hewitt teen flick Can’t Hardly Wait. The following year, he was cast as the irritable Scott Evil in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. Also in 1999, Green was cast as a zombie in the film Idle Hands, about a teenager whose renegade hands possess him to murder his classmates. The film opened one week after the 1999 Columbine High School massacre and quickly vanished from the theatres.

In 1999, Green began played the voice of Chris Griffin for the animated series Family Guy. The show was cancelled in 2000, brought back to television, cancelled again in 2002, and then resumed production in 2005.

Green continued to act steadily throughout the early years of the new millenium; starring in Rat Race (2001) America's Sweethearts (2001), Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002), and The Italian Job (2003). In 2004, he played a museum curator in Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed. That same year, Green starred in the comedy Without a Paddle, about the misadventures of three urbanites on a canoe trip.

In 2005 Green co-created Robot Chicken with Matthew Senreich for Cartoon Network. Green is an avid collector of action figures, and has written for Toyfare magazine on the topic of collecting. He also collects figures made in the likeness of characters he has played, including Oz from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Scott Evil from the Austin Powers movies and Chris Griffin from Family Guy.
