Biography
PETER FACINELLI
Peter Facinelli has established himself as one of Hollywood's most sought-after actors with distinctive and impressive performances.
Facinelli was recently seen starring as Dr. Carlisle Cullen, the altruistic patriarch of the Cullen clan, in the blockbuster feature films,
Twilight and The Twilight Saga: New Moon for Summit Entertainment. The studio's Twilight film franchise is based on Stephenie Meyer's #1
New York Times bestselling series about a Romeo & Juliet- style romance between a mortal and a vampire. Both films broke multiple box
office records. Twilight earned the 2nd biggest opening day for a non-sequel, behind only Spider-Man, and opened at #1 in 23 international
territories. The Twilight Saga: New Moon shattered the records for opening day and midnight showings. In addition, with $142.8 million its
opening weekend New Moon earned the third highest-grossing opening behind only The Dark Knight and Spider-Man 3 and the biggest of
2009. Facinelli will reprise his role in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the third film based on the blockbuster book series. Directed by David
Slade, the film will be released on Wednesday, June 30, 2010.
Facinelli also stars opposite Edie Falco in Showtime's critically acclaimed new comedy series "Nurse Jackie". Facinelli appears as
Dr. Cooper, a handsome golden boy afflicted with a quirky variation of Tourette's Syndrome. "Nurse Jackie" was recently named one of
the American Film Institute's Top Ten TV Shows of 2009 and was also recently nominated for a 2010 Writers Guild Award in the "New
Series" category. The show was picked up for a second season the day after the series premiere aired. Season 2 of "Nurse Jackie"
will premiere on Monday, March 22nd at 10:00PM on Showtime.
Facnielli was also recently seen starring opposite Matthew Broderick and Brittany Snow in the dramedy, Finding Amanda, which
premiered at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival.
His portrayal in The Big Kahuna as a Bob Walker, a devout Baptist whose strong religious beliefs bring him into sharp conflict with
his older and more cynical colleagues, earned Facinelli rave reviews. Also starring Kevin Spacey and Danny De Vito, the film premiered
at the 1999 Sundance Film Festival and was also accepted at the Toronto Film Festival that year. His additional feature film credits include
The Scorpion King opposite Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, Penny Marshall's Riding in Cars with Boys opposite Drew Barrymore, a starring

Texas Pop. 81 with Breckin Meyer, and Foxfire opposite Angelina Jolie.
Facinelli was recently seen in a recurring role on "Damages", FX's award winning legal thriller starring Glenn Close. The show's first
season finds Patty Hewes (Close) attempting to win a class-action lawsuit against the former CEO of a corporation (Ted Danson). Her entire
case hinged on the concealed testimony of Gregory Malina, portrayed by Facinelli. His additional television credits include a starring role in
McG's sexy one-hour drama "Fastlane" and a recurring role as a promising art student and love interest for Lauren Ambrose's character in
the award winning HBO Series "Six Feet Under." Facinelli shared the cast's 2005 nomination for the SAG Award for Best Ensemble in a Drama.
