Before becoming the successful actor he is today, Matt Lanter was a contestant on Bravo's reality TV series Manhunt: The Search for America's Most Gorgeous Male Model in 2004. While we personally think Matt was deserving of the title, he didn't make it to the end.
However, his move to L.A. did help him to land early roles on series including Point Pleasant, Grey's Anatomy, and 8 Simple Rules! His biggest break would be landing a regular spot on ABC's political drama Commander in Chief in 2005 and later 2008's romance film The Cutting Edge: Chasing the Dream.

Perhaps Matt's most notable role, however, was the voice of "Anakin Skywalker" on the TV series Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels. After a series of successful roles including, starring as "Liam Court" on the CW's 90210 from 2008-2013, Matt Lanter would land the role of "Wyatt Logan" on NBC's hit series Timeless.
