Wentworth Miller is best known as the TV character who tried to break out from behind bars on the Fox TV series Prison Break . The actor, model, writer and producer rose to fame after playing Michael Scofield in the miniseries. Here’s an in-depth look at the Prison Break star’s life and how it’s changed dramatically.

biography

The Prison Break star was born Wentworth Earl Miller III on June 2, 1972 in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire. He attended Midwood High School in Brooklyn and later Quaker Valley High School in Pennsylvania, where he graduated in 1990. He went to Princeton University in 1990. He went to Princeton University where he received a degree in English Literature. Though Miller never actually thought about pursuing an acting career, he had a passion for it from an early age.

journey of success

In 1995 he moved to Los Angeles, where his rocky road to stardom began. Miller debuted in a 1998 episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer where he starred as Gage Petronzi, a student sea monster. After several other supporting roles, Miller landed his breakout role in 2005 when he was cast as Michael Scofield in the Fox Network television series Prison Break .

He was the handsome boy of the show, as he portrayed the role of a caring and desperate brother who devised a plan to help his brother Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) escape death row after he was found guilty of a crime that he had not committed. Miller rose to prominence following his role as Michael Scofield on the series, and his outstanding performance on the Fox series from 2005-2009 earned him a 2005 Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Actor in a Dramatic Series.

After Prison Break, Miller, who didn’t just want to be known as an actor, managed an escape of his own by venturing into the screenplay. He made his screenwriting debut in 2013 with the film Heizer . His other notable post-Prison Break roles include a recurring role as Leonard Snart/Captain Cold on the superhero series The Flash and its spin -off, Legends of Tomorrow . In 2017, it was announced that Miller would reprise his role as Michael Scofield in the miniseries Prison Break.

His father, a Yale University graduate, is a lawyer and former prosecutor in Brooklyn, while his mother is a special education teacher. He has two sisters, Leigh and Gillian. Miller’s father is Black of African American, Jamaican, English, German, Jewish, and Cherokee ancestry while his mother is White of Russian, French, Dutch, Syrian, and Lebanese ancestry.

The actor is named after his grandfather and father, a name derived every three generations from the character Captain Wentworth in the Jane Austen-penned book Persuasion.

Is Wentworth Miller gay, who’s the boyfriend, woman?

Over the years, Wentworth Miller’s sexuality has been questioned as there have been rumors that he is dating another actor, Luke Macfarlane. Although the actors have often been spotted together since around 2007, they have never confirmed the nature of their relationship and if they were ever an item.

In several interviews, Miller had avoided questions about his sexuality and had denied being gay. But in a bold move, Miller later shocked most of his loyal and unsuspecting fans with the news of his sexuality. In a letter to the organizers of the Russian International Film Festival, Miller, who earlier expressed a desire to one day have a wife and children, came out as gay.

In the letter, published on GLAAD’s website in August 2013, in response to his invitation to the film festival, the Prison Break star declined the offer and explained the reasons for his actions. According to him, Russia’s anti-gay laws, which violently persecute his kind, prevented him from visiting the country.

Interestingly, Wentworth Miller had always known he was gay from an early age, but he was afraid to come out of the closet and few close family and friends knew about his sexuality. But after 41 years, Miller overcame his fears of possible backlash and outright discrimination by going public with the news.

The actor admits he feared that admitting his true sexuality would adversely affect his career as it has in the entertainment industry. He was afraid of the physical, psychological, and emotional costs it might cost him.

What’s more, in a speech at the 2013 Human Rights Conference campaign dinner in Seattle, Washington, Miller revealed that before returning as gay, he had lived in fear because of his sexual orientation and even attempted suicide on several occasions. Contrary to his expectations of backlash, however, Miller’s bold confession drew praise from various quarters, most notably the LGBTQ community.

Wealth (income and earnings)

From his many endeavors in entertainment, Miller has built an impressive career as an actor, screenwriter and model. His current net worth is estimated at $4 million, a number likely to grow in the future given his profile and other projects still in the pipeline.
