Love Ben Foster (born October 29, 1980) is a Daytime Emmy- and Screen Actors Guild Award-winning American actor. He is known for his roles in the teen movies Liberty Heights and Get Over It, as well as the action films Hostage (2005), X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), 'Alpha Dog' (2007) and 3:10 to Yuma (2007). Foster was born in Boston, Massachusetts, the son of Stephen Foster, a restaurateur. He has a younger brother, Jon, who is also an actor. Fosters parents, whom he has described as 'free-spirited, Vietnam-protesting hippies', relocated to the small town of Fairfield, Iowa four years after he was born, and after their Boston house was burglarized while they were present. Foster is Jewish; his paternal grandmother emigrated from Russia to escape Pogroms. At the age of sixteen, Foster dropped out of high school and moved to Los Angeles. In 1996-97, he appeared in the television series Flash Forward. In the next three years, Foster had small roles in two made-for-TV movies and in two episodes of the series Freaks and Geeks. In 2001, he acted in Get Over It. Foster also had a recurring role as Russell Corwin (22 episodes) in the HBO Original Series, Six Feet Under. After he made 11:14 and The Punisher, Foster also appeared in Hostage with Bruce Willis, Kevin Pollak and Michelle Horn. In 2006, Foster appeared in X-Men: The Last Stand as the comic-book hero Angel/Warren Worthington III. A notable role was in the crime thriller Alpha Dog, in which he played Jake Mazursky, a drug addict. Foster added glaucoma drops to his eyes during filming in order to simulate the appearance of a drug abuser.[4] In 2007, he played cold-blooded killer Charlie Prince in the critically acclaimed 3:10 to Yuma.
