Someone on Instagram posted pics of Tim’s first headshot and resume.

I love this! I didn’t know he was in other plays apart from The Monogamist & The Santaland Diaries. It won’t be his first resume as he’s already had a few film & tv roles. And the handwritten note in the top left corner shows he was unavailable because he had been cast in Go when this copy was considered. Wonder what role he missed out on!

Hah hah most of those theatre roles are made up! He added stuff to pad his resume. He only did the Santaland Diaries and the Monogamist. I can't remember which interview it was but I think it might have been with Kurt Loder, where he talks about his wife finding his resume at some point and asking what the hell Joe's Not Home was.

I had found this pic recently that I think is from the same shoot but forgot to post it here. He looks soooo different to me, like a completely different person, but I can't identify any feature that has changed. Except for his Hollywood teeth I don't think he's had any work done. Just his face thinning out I guess.

PS Just noticed he spelledPlaywrights Horizons wrong! ("Horizins") Such a rookie resume.

He looks much different from when he was younger. I think it’s a combination of his face thinning out and just age. He eyes aren't as wide as they were when he first started out. And I think when he had his crowns/veneers done it changed the shape of his lip/mouth slightly. It’s amazing what changing your teeth does to your appearance, its a lot more subtle with crowns or veneers than moving teeth with braces but it does change things slightly. I have to say, as someone who works in dentistry, aesthetically the dentist he saw did a fantastic job on his teeth. They are a nice shape and color and fit his face well. His face and neck also aren’t as thick/blocky as was when he was in college. The swimming and weightlifting kept his face and neck bulkier.

Good catch superglue, he must not have had anyone proof his resume for him. 😂

He was accused of having a nose job done by celeb plastic surgery sites, but I don't think he did. His nose looks exactly the same.

I agree he had a great dentist who did his veneers. In the USC pics, you can see how uneven they were and I think his left canine was chipped. (This is a big image if anyone wants to download it to zoom in.)

HaHa I thought he just did the made up resume for when he started out. He was actually in another play that isn't mentioned here called Plunge. Got a favourable mention by a reviewer: www.curtainup.com/plunge.html

I saw that botox accusation and laughed. His face is so expressive and his skin looks so healthy. Botox not only freezes your face muscles up but it causes the skin to have a strange waxy look. I saw a recent photo of Courtney Cox and it made me so sad. She's gone overboard with the Botox and fillers and it makes her look about 60.

I think Tim looks about 45-50. He's got laugh lines and wrinkles. He definitely doesn't stay out of the sun (and I think he's very sun-kissed here from Costa Rica) but I think that judging by how lean he has always been, he has a very healthy diet and that contributes a lot ot the elasticity of the skin, plus he's a good California kid and we aren't smokers (of nicotine at least ).Notice how expressive his forehead is especially. You can't do that with Botox and I can't remember any point where his face wasn't animated. People just say that because he is still gorgeous at 50.

I'm trying to find the interview where he talks about his wife finding the old magazine that listed his work and asking him, "Did you know you were in a play called Joe's Not Home?" I'm pretty sure it was an audio interview. I did find this from an old post on the board:

Unfortunately, it cuts off right when the journalist asked about it!

Found it! From 1999 interview with Robin Milling (whoever that is). About 9 minutes in.

PS I can't believe 1999 was 20 years ago...

I think he’s good about wearing sunscreen when he is out. A lot of the tennis pics he has it smeared across his face. Which even that will take its toll on the skin if you are out but it will help with premature aging and wrinkles. He’s just aged really well and looks super healthy and happy.

Thanks for the interview, I was wracking my brain trying to remember what interview he talks about the play he didn’t do but couldn’t come up with it.

Same, it is the downside to being of Irish/Scottish/Swedish ancestry. I can be outside for 10 minutes and I start to burn.

This such a good early interview. Love the 'no, you're not getting any proposal stories' comment. Wonder if we'll ever see any mohawk school pics!
