[edit] Career

Lively's first movie was as a baby in Natalie Wood's last film, Brainstorm (1983). After graduating high school, Lively moved to New York City to study photography, his first passion. He studied photography at Parsons The New School for Design in New York City. At one time, he was an Abercrombie and Fitch model.

He guest starred in an episode of Full House at age 13, where he played Stephanie Tanner's first boyfriend. Afterwards, Lively returned to Los Angeles in the late 1990s and had a role in American Pie (1999). He followed this up on the television series So Weird, on which he played Carey Bell from 2000 to 2001. He learned to play the guitar for his character on So Weird. Lively was then a cast member of the short-lived 2003 Norm Macdonald series A Minute With Stan Hooper. In 2004 he acted in Speak with Kristen Stewart. In 2005, Lively was offered two different television roles - on 24 and The L Word. He took the role on The L Word as documentary filmmaker Mark Wayland. He chose a recurring role on The L Word over a regular role on 24 because he felt the subject matter was more important^{[citation needed]}.

Lively was also part of the cast of the WB series Modern Men from March until May 2006. His last role was in The Butterfly Effect 2, where he was the main character.

Lively played the President's son, Roger Taylor, in 24: Redemption, a television movie prequel to the seventh season of 24.^[1]

He also appeared in Pink's music video "Please Don't Leave Me" from her album "Funhouse" in 2009. Stuntman Justin Sundquist served as his stunt double.
