He pursued basketball in high school with tremendous success, until a knee injury ended his sports career, and he then trained and worked as a graphic artist for some time. Eventually, however, his interest in acting became overpowering, and Morgan moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting as a career, rather than just an interest. He found steady work appearing on shows like ER and Angel, eventually scoring a huge break in 2005 when he was cast in recurring roles on three different series: Grey's Anatomy, Weeds, and Supernatural. The shows put him on the map, especially Grey's Anatomy, and oddly enough, his characters died on all three shows. Morgan's career was still alive and kicking, however, and he was soon appearing in the comedy Kabluey opposite Christine Taylor and The Accidental Husband with Uma Thurman and Colin Firth. He had a memorable recurring role on Grey's Anatomy which led to his most high-profile success as The Comedian in the highly-anticipated adaptation of The Watchmen. He went on to appear in the action film The Losers, as well as 2011's Texas Killing Fields, and the 2012 remake of Red Dawn. ~ Cammila Collar, Rovi
