Son of Michael Weatherly, Sr., who made millions as the importer of the Swiss Army Knife, and Patricia, a hospital administrator. He has a brother, Will. His father reportedly cut him off from his inheritance when he decided to pursue acting, though Weatherly claims the situation has been blown out of proportion. "My family wasn't thrilled," concedes the actor, "but I get along well with both of my parents now." He also has a great passion for music, and played in a band while pursuing his acting career. While playing in the band, he began acting professionally and landed his first job as Theo Huxtable's roommate on "The Cosby Show," and a role in the independent film "Trigger Happy" opposite Rosario Dawson. This led to numerous guest spots on television and brought him to Los Angeles. After moving to Los Angeles, he landed a series regular role in the FOX television series "Significant Others." Michael then met director Whit Stillman, who cast him in the film Last Days of Disco, The (1998) opposite Chloe Sevigny. Michael also starred as Christina Applegate's ex-husband in the television series "Jesse," and in the films Specials, The (2000) opposite Rob Lowe, Venus and Mars (2001) opposite Lynn Redgrave and Gun Shy (2000) opposite Liam Neeson and Sandra Bullock. In 1995 he married actress Amelia Heinle who he appeared with in both "The City" and "Loving". Tragically, their marriage did not last long, and they divorced in 1997, despite the birth of their son, August in 1996. Some more "factoids": He was a soccer player when he was younger. He got into Brooks, a prestigious Episcopalian boarding school in Connecticut, because of his prowess in soccer. He also mentioned that he was captain of various athletic teams in his previous school. He admitted that he was far from a stellar student and was on academic probation constantly. He has a "really big, jagged" scar on his elbow, which helped with his role on Loving. Filmography "Dark Angel" (2000-2002 ) TV Series .... Logan Cale/Eyes Only Trigger Happy (2001) ....
