Zachary John Quinto (b. 1977) is an American actor. He began acting in small roles in his native Pittsburgh as a child, and claims to have known since a very young age that acting was his calling. He is famous for having [[Big Ol' Eyebrows]], [[Heroes (TV)|cutting open people's heads]], and [[Star Trek (Film)|having pointy ears]].
----
This actor and his roles provide examples of:
* [[All Lowercase Letters]]: his [http://dailyzqphoto.tumblr.com/post/11527752860/10-16-11-nyc-when-i-found-out-that-jamey blog postings] and [http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1s28xxGbX1qbf154o1_1280.jpg twitter] are exactly how you would expect.
* [[Big Ol' Eyebrows]]
* [[Corpsing]]: Almost broke character when Spock was interrogating Kirk and Scotty; the final scene in the film shows his expression twitching just slightly enough to be missed.
** Also applies to several scenes in ''[[Heroes (TV)|Heroes]]'' where Sylar's expression can change just enough to indicate near-corpsing.
Line 15:
** His Twitter sometimes will lapse into complete [http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1s28xxGbX1qbf154o1_1280.jpg nonsense], giving off a [[Cloudcuckoolander]] impression.
** Was nearly hit by a car because he stopped in the middle of crossing a street to take a [http://dailyzqphoto.tumblr.com/post/13013132601/sexyzach picture] of a ''balloon''.
* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]: Is quite laid back and sweet in [[Real Life]], but once he gets into character, prepare to be terrified.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: As Sylar's popularity increased, the writers wrote in more thinly veiled [[Fan Service]] moments into his scenes. There is a reason he and Milo Ventimiglia, who plays Peter, have the most [[Shirtless Scene|shirtless scenes]] in the show.
** His guest role on [[American Horror Story]] plays up this angle as well.
Line 21:
* [[Promoted Fanboy]]: An avowed drama geek from the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama, he was extremely pleased to be cast as Louis in a production of ''[[Angels in America]]'' as he was a fan of the material.
** Played with in that it wasn't until he was cast as the reboot Spock that he became a fan of Star Trek.
* [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]]: Tends to speak in an articulate manner, although tends to lapse into [[Buffy -Speak]] or [[Sophisticated As Hell]] in more casual settings.
* [[Straight Gay]]: [http://nymag.com/movies/features/zachary-quinto-2011-10/ Came out] with an offhand comment in a recent interview and prefers to not discuss his personal life.
