In the glitz and glam of Hollywood, it is rare for fans to get a closer look into the inspiration and process of bringing a character to life. This actor, known for his memorable performances in the NBC comedy “Scrubs” and films like “Office Space” and “Platoon,” has opened up about the personal challenges that inspired his on-screen characters.
However, these challenges were more than just inspirations; they were life-changing lessons and rewards that altered the trajectory of the actor’s personal and professional life.
The actor’s life took a transformative turn when his son Max was born in August 1997, coincidentally on the day Princess Diana died. People around him and his ex-wife, Lauren Lambert, were shocked, but the parents did not understand the fuss.
But just as the world was shocked at the death of Princess Diana, the actor and the mother of his son also experienced an unexpected shift. They had anticipated the birth of a daughter but were surprised by the arrival of a son.
Twenty minutes after Max’s birth, the doctors delivered more unexpected news, informing them that their newborn son was diagnosed with Down syndrome. The parents knew nothing about the condition nor had any indication that their child could be born with it.
