Why Seann William Scott Was Never The Same After American Pie

Seann William Scott is one of those actors who was totally unknown before stepping into an instantly iconic role. Playing Stifler in "American Pie" and its various sequels, Scott found a way to make a borderline sociopathic character more than a little bit lovable, and he earned himself a lasting career in the process. Though he has never achieved the knockout success of the "Pie" movies, it's not for lack of trying. Like many comedic actors, Scott found himself pigeonholed in roles similar to the immortal Stifler. Even so, Scott doesn't seem to be unhappy with the situation, and he's been showing some signs of moving beyond his perpetually juvenile character's limitations. This is why Seann William Scott was never the same after "American Pie."

Stifler from the American Pie movies 💯

I actually love Bulletproof Monk, it's a guilty pleasure and I can watch Chow Yun-Fat in anything. As far as Scott's best role for me it was his portrayal of Doug Glatt in The Goon movies.

If he plays Booster Gold, he's kinda stuck doing Booster Gold even if DC screws up like they are prone to doing right now. He may be better off playing a character in another suicide squad for DC in my opinion. Idk which yet but I can see him being someone in Suicide Squad. There is tons and tons of Characters on the list of captured villain's or criminals that make up suicide squads.
