Eric Stoltz (born September 30, 1961) is the w:Golden Globe-nominated American actor and director who is cast in the role of Daniel Graystone[1] for the Re-imagined Series' prequel, Caprica.

Born in Whittier, California, he is a prolific actor who has acted in various genres outside of science fiction, including appearances on television series, including St. Elsewhere, Fraiser, Mad About You, Chicago Hope, and Medium.

In film, he is best known for his roles in Mask, Pulp Fuction, Say Anything, Some Kind of Wonderful, and Fast Times at Ridgemont High (his first film role).

In the science fiction genre, he starred in Sci-Fi Channel's mini-series, The Triangle.

Fox was given the role.[2]
