بیوگرافی
Samuel Henry John Worthington was born August 2, 1976 in Surrey, England. His parents, Jeanne (Martyn) and Ronald Worthington, a power plant employee, moved the family to Australia when he was six months old, and raised him and his sister Lucinda in Warnbro, a suburb of Perth, Western Australia.Worthington graduated from NIDA (Australia's National Institute of Dramatic Art) in 1998 at the age of 22. He received critical acclaim for his portrayal of "Arthur Wellesley" in his first professional role in the Belvoir Street Theatre production "Judas Kiss" (directed by 'Neil Armfield' (qv)). He then went on to work in Australian television on such shows as _Water Rats (1996)_ (qv) and "Backburner" and then on the American TV show _JAG (1995)_ (qv)'s 100th episode (Boomerang: Part 1).Worthington made his film debut in the highly acclaimed Australian movie _Bootmen (2000)_ (qv), a film about a troop of "tap dogs". Minor roles proceeded in _Hart's War (2002)_ (qv) and _A Matter of Life (2001)_ (qv) before he was cast in another hailed Australian drama, _Dirty Deeds (2002)_ (qv), co-starring 'Toni Collette' (qv) and 'John Goodman' (qv).The following year, he starred in yet another Aussie film, opposite 'David Wenham' (qv) in _Gettin' Square (2003)_ (qv). The director of the film, 'Jonathan Teplitzky' (qv), originally tested actors who were up to 8 years older than the then-27-year-old Worthington. Teplitzky wasn't sure Sam "could convincingly play a tough guy and also have elements of the leading man about him", but in the end Teplitzky decided he was "fantastic", and had "David playing the older, slightly more streetwise accomplice" proclaiming "it worked".But it wasn't until 2004 that Sam got his big break. He was offered the starring role in 'Cate Shortland' (qv)'s acclaimed Australian drama _Somersault (2004)_ (qv), opposite 'Abbie Cornish' (qv). The film made a clean sweep of the Australian Film Institute awards in 2004, winning in 13 film categories - the first time this has ever occurred in the award's history. Worthington also won the AFI award for Best Male Actor.Worthington's career took off internationally when he was cast as Jake Sully in 'James Cameron' (qv)'s _Avatar (2009)_ (qv) and as Marcus Wright, a cyborg who assists the humans despite their suspicions of him in _Terminator Salvation (2009)_ (qv). Worthington soon became a household name, and starring in high profile films _Clash of the Titans (2010)_ (qv), _The Debt (2010)_ (qv), _Texas Killing Fields (2011)_ (qv), _Man on a Ledge (2012)_ (qv), and _Wrath of the Titans (2012)_ (qv). Worthington also provided the voice for the Call of Duty: Black Ops video games.In 2010, Worthington started a production company, Full Clip Productions, with two of his close friends John Schwarz and Michael Schwarz. The company teamed with Radical studios to print two graphic novels Damaged and Patriots.::SimpleWorld
