Steve Carell, one of American comedy's most popular faces, is now celebrated as the funniest man on the cover of Life Magazine and on NBC's SNL, where he hosted the 2005-2006 season premiere. He became an unusually versatile comic after more than two decades of improv skits and bit parts, and received the 2006 Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in Television Comedy for the leading role of Michael Scott in his remake of Britain's existential comedy "The Office" (2005).

He was born Steven John Carell on August 16, 1962, into an Italian-American family in Concord, Massachusetts, USA. He was educated at The Fenn School, an all boys private school in Concord, Massachusetts, then at Middlesex School in Concord. He studied and graduated from Denison University in Granville, Ohio, then took acting at Chicago's Second City troupe. Carell made his film debut in 1991, as Tesio in Curly Sue (1991). From 1990-1996 he taught improvisational comedy class and also performed with The Second City troupe in Chicago. During the 1990s he was writing for The Dana Carvey Show, then he had a stint as one of correspondents on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.

A scene containing a hangman's noose, from TV series The Office, has drawn the ire of suicide prevention activists. The scene – showing Steve Carell trying to scare young children by struggling with a hangman's noose – has brought the comment from mental health organisations in the US that Hollywood needs to stop using suicide as a punchline. Carell, in the episode, satirises a public service announcement after depicting a hanging to a bunch of kids. He says: "Kids, just remember, suicide is not the answer. It is the easy way out." "We try not to be zealots about this,” said Robert Gebbia, executive ... Read Full Story

The first teaser for Despicable Me had a fair amount of laughs, and the second trailer, just released last night, isn't nearly as funny although it's certainly a nice companion piece. Now, don't get this confused with Oobermind , which is another 2010 supervillain cartoon comedy. That one's about a villain who kills his archrival and loses the will to live. Despicable Me is about a villain named Gru ( Steve Carell ) who wants to one-up another bad guy ( Jason Segel ) by stealing the moon. That would do it. While this trailer is a bit of a step down, I have ... Read Full Story

Director: Peter Segal When the first Get Smart poster hit the multiplex, it looked like Nick at Nite by way of Neutrogena with a jaw-droppingly gorgeous glamour shot of Anne Hathaway given a perfect salon blowout coupled with flawlessly air-brushed skin all but drowning out her film’s costar and lead actor, Steve Carell. Needless to say, this image went off like a fanboy bat signal in cyberspace signaling panic in those who cherished the clever humor and inventive James Bond inspired 1960’s television spoof created by Mel Brooks and Buck Henry and immediately cried foul, bracing themselves for the worst as they nervously anticipated ...

Steve Carell is an oddity. I don't mean he's odd, or in any way peculiarly shaped, but rather that his career track is not something too many people can parallel. He became well-known on TV, through The Daily Show and The Office , but then The 40-Year-Old Virgin made him a movie star. That movie helped bolster his Office audience as it rolled into its first full season, and the following summer, he appeared in Little Miss Sunshine , which would go on to gross tons of money and nab a bunch of Oscar nominations. Then came more TV, followed by Evan Almighty , ... Read Full Story
