About

Born December 28, 1976, Joe Manganiello is perhaps best-known for his role as werewolf Alcide Herveaux on True Blood.

As a high school student, the Pennsylvania native starred in Oklahoma! and was a member of the football, basketball and volleyball teams. After sustaining a football injury during his senior year, Manganiello auditioned for the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama. Rejected, he enrolled at the University of Pittsburgh; he reapplied to Carnegie Mellon and was admitted the following year.

Shortly after graduating, he moved to L.A. and scored a minor role in Spider-Man, as well as the short-lived TV series So NoTorious, where he played Tori Spelling‘s love interest. He also guest-starred on Las Vegas, Jake in Progress, Close to Home and ER.

He later appeared on How I Met Your Mother and One Tree Hill before landing a role on HBO’s hit vampire drama True Blood.

Manganiello married actress Sofia Vergara in November 2015, nearly seven years before they called it quits. He filed for divorce in July 2023, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
