Step into an extraordinary journey with Colin Egglesfield, a multi-hyphenate creator who has built a global career by refusing to follow a straight path. After taking the MCAT, he made a radical pivot into modeling before breaking into Hollywood with a contract role on All My Children. Along the way he survived multiple life-altering setbacks, including multiple bouts of cancer and living through the World Trade Center tragedy, which reshaped his entire outlook on purpose and possibility. Colin opens up about the intense pressures of Hollywood including being unexpectedly killed off a show, being told he looked "too much like Tom Cruise" in an audition, and how he overcame debilitating stage fright through unconventional acting exercises. You don't want to miss how he booked Something Borrowed after five rounds of auditions, including how he wrote his Oscar acceptance speech before the final audition.

These are the unforgettable stories that landed Colin Egglesfield right here.
