Early life and education

Weller was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, the son of lawyers Carole and Francis Weller. He is a 1988 graduate of Jesuit High School, a Catholic all-boys high school in New Orleans. He was graduated summa cum laude from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1992. He then studied acting at The Juilliard School as a member of the Drama Division's Group 21 (1992-1994).

Career

In 1994, Weller was one of the main regulars in the TV series Missing Persons. He has made guest appearances in episodes of Law & Order, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Monk and The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles. He has also appeared in several well-received films, such as Stonewall, The Business of Strangers, The Shape of Things, and the 2000 drama/miniseries The Beach Boys: An American Family portraying the character Brian Wilson.

Weller was initially successful as a stage actor, and stage acting is still his biggest passion. He performed in Neil LaBute and David Mamet plays and films. He appeared on Broadway in 2014 in the Terrence McNally play Mothers and Sons.

Weller has also played lead roles in many successful independent films, including Neil Labute's The Shape of Things (with Paul Rudd, Rachel Weisz and Gretchen Mol), James Tobak's When Will I Be Loved (opposite Neve Campbell) and The Business of Strangers (with Stockard Channing and Julia Stiles).

Personal life

Weller married actress Ali Marsh on September 6, 2003. They have a daughter Azalea, born in 2007, whose godmother is his In Plain Sight co-star Mary McCormack.
