Bio
The actor, producer and screenwriter, he gained wide popularity in the middle 2010s after the release of the series “The Vampire Diaries”. He portrayed one of the title characters, Stefan Salvatore, the vampire, who did lots of harm to human beings and feels for guilty for it. His other successful interesting screen works were in the drama “Before I Disappear”, in the fantasy TV show “The Originals” and the sports biopic “Peaceful Warrior”.
He was born as Paul Wasilewski in the family of Polish immigrants (as you can guess from his name). He liked acting since the earliest age and decided to become an entertainer during his years in a high school. Then he made his professional debut – he depicted Max Nickerson in the series “The Guiding Light”. His play was so natural that film producers immediately began sending him their offers – one better than the other. Paul left his dreams to continue his education (he left Rutgers University after just one semester there) and devoted all his time and energy to acting.
In 2005 she decided to shorten his surname from “Wasilewski” to “Wesley”. The actor tells that he likes his original name, but it’s too hard for the “American” ear, so viewers couldn’t remember it. After the name change, his career was developing so fast.
He acted in many movies and TV shows, which belong to various genres. But his most popular screen heroes were not people, but werewolves and other supernatural creatures. He portrayed a werewolf Luke in the CBS series “Wolf Lake”, which was closed after the first season for unknown reasons (the show rating was rather high) and made Paul’s fans all over the world sad. His other hero, who was just partially a human being, was in a television film “Fallen”.
Now Paul Wesley is a busy actor, who has already tried his hand in several off-screen activities. He co-produced the film “Before I Disappear” and directed several short movies and TV shows episodes.
