Lillard's breakthrough came in major role in 1996's Scream. Playing a homiciadal teen, his performance in the critically and commercially successful film led to a string of big-budget appearances, including Wing Commander (1999), She's All That (1999), and Thirteen Ghosts (2001). Lillard also turned in a well-recieved performance as Stevo, a lovingly satirized rebel in an all-too-straight Salt Lake City, in the indie film SLC Punk!

LOVE this guy! What girl wouldn't melt for that cute dimpled smile? He was SOOOOOO amazing In SLC Punk, and loved him in Without A Paddle as well. I would love to see him in more movies, it seems they just never use him as much as they should :(
