He made his directorial debut with the coming-of-age drama Fat Kid Rules the World (2012).[2] Since 2018, Lillard also stars as Dean Boland in the television series Good Girls.

Early life

Lillard was born in Lansing, Michigan, the son of Paula and Jeffrey Lillard (born 1948),[3][4][5] and grew up in Tustin, California.[6] He has a younger sister, Amy, and attended Foothill High School in Santa Ana, California. He later attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Pasadena, California, with fellow actor Paul Rudd. He also attended Circle in the Square in New York City.

Career

Lillard at the 84th Academy Awards in 2012

After high school, Lillard was co-host of a short-lived TV show titled SK8-TV, and afterwards was hired as an extra in Ghoulies 3: Ghoulies Go to College (1991). In 1994, he was cast in the John Waters black comedy Serial Mom. The following year he was cast in five films, including Hackers, a thriller about a group of high school kids who thwart a multimillion-dollar corporate extortion conspiracy. In 1996, he was cast as Stu Macher in the horror film Scream. He also played Stevo in the independent film SLC Punk!, and supporting character Dennis Rafkin in Thirteen Ghosts.

Lillard was cast as Norville "Shaggy" Rogers in the 2002 live-action Scooby-Doo film, a role he later reprised in the 2004 sequel Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed. When Casey Kasem, who had voiced the character from the show's debut in 1969, retired in 2009 due to declining health, Lillard was chosen as his replacement and voiced Shaggy in the three subsequent animated series, Mystery Incorporated, Be Cool Scooby-Doo!, and Scooby-Doo and Guess Who?, as well as every direct-to-video film since 2010's Scooby-Doo! Abracadabra-Doo.[7][8][9] Lillard, however, did not voice Shaggy in the computer-animated 2020 Scooby-Doo reboot Scoob!, with the character instead being voiced by SNL alum Will Forte. Lillard and Grey DeLisle, the longtime voice of Daphne Blake, both expressed their disappointment about having not been contacted about the decision to reprise their voice roles for the film.[10][11]

In 2011, Lillard guest starred on the Fox series House.[12] In 2011, he produced and directed his first feature film, Fat Kid Rules the World, based on the K. L. Going book of the same name.[13] Later that year, he appeared in the comedy-drama film The Descendants.[14] Lillard also reprised the voice role of Shaggy in the crossover episode in the television series Supernatural in 2018.[15]

In 2012, Lillard guest-starred in the Criminal Minds episode "The Apprenticeship". The following year, he played the role of Daniel Frye on the American TV series The Bridge. In 2014, Lillard starred as Peter in the animated film Under Wraps, alongside Brooke Shields and Drake Bell. In 2017, Lillard starred as William Hastings in the third season of Twin Peaks. The next year, he began starring as Christina Hendricks' cheating husband on the NBC series Good Girls.

Personal life

On August 12, 2000, Lillard married Heather Helm, with whom he has two daughters, Addison and Macey, and a son, Liam. They live in Los Angeles.[16]

In October 2005, he participated in a Dungeons & Dragons tournament, against members of the Quest Club Gaming Organization, at the Magic Castle in Hollywood, California.[17][18] Lillard has also played Dungeons & Dragons with the online series Dice, Camera, Action with Christopher Perkins as the Dungeon Master.[19]
