Andrew Keegan is an American actor. He is best known for his roles in television shows including Sabrina the Teenage Witch , Trinkets , Moesha , Party of Five , and 7th Heaven and in films such as 10 Things I Hate about You (1999), The Broken Hearts Club (2000), and O (2001).
Keegan was born Andrew Keegan Heying in Los Angeles, California, the older son of Lana (Ocampo), a hairdresser, and Larry Heying, a voice-over actor.[ citation needed ] His mother is a Colombian immigrant and his father is from Nebraska. Keegan's paternal grandparents are of German and Czech descent. [1] Keegan has a younger brother, Casey, who is also an actor. [2]
He was first recognized for his performance in the supporting role of Zack Dell in the comedy film Camp Nowhere (1994). He then secured a recurring role in the family situation comedy Thunder Alley (1994-95). He played a love interest for Stephanie Tanner in the television series Full House for a 1995 episode. He had guest parts on numerous television shows before being cast on the TV drama Party of Five (1994). He made an appearance on Sabrina the Teenage Witch (1996) in which the episode was dedicated to his character Magic Joel.
Keegan had a bit part in the ensemble science fiction film Independence Day (1996). That same year, he landed a recurring role on 7th Heaven , where he played a single teenaged father in love with Jessica Biel's character Mary. Keegan was then cast in three modern-day Shakespearean film adaptations: as the antagonist of Heath Ledger in romantic comedy 10 Things I Hate About You (1999) (adapted from The Taming of the Shrew ) and as Mekhi Phifer's best friend in O (2001), adapted from Othello , and in A Midsummer Night's Rave (2002), adapted from A Midsummer Night's Dream .
Keegan then took a role in Greg Berlanti's ensemble film The Broken Hearts Club: A Romantic Comedy (2000), which won Best Picture that year at the GLAAD Awards. He had a supporting role in the horror film Cruel World (2005) and the starring role in the independently produced comedy A New Wave (2006). In 2009, Keegan made his theatrical stage debut in the play He Asked For It, playing Rigby, a character tackling the emotional issues of being HIV-positive in modern-day society. Keegan won the lead role as Strayger, a drug-smuggling pilot in the action film Kill Speed (2010). He won another supporting role in the romantic comedy Love, Wedding, Marriage (2011).
In 2014, Keegan founded Full Circle, a community spiritual center based in Venice, Los Angeles. [3] Vice characterized the organization as a "new religion", [4] while other outlets called it a cult. [5] In a 2015 interview, Keegan described the group as a "non-denominational spiritual community center where people of all beliefs and backgrounds come together to meditate, practice yoga, and engage artistically." [6] New York Magazine reported in March 2015 that "the actual theology of the group is tough to pin down, but it seems to loosely follow Hinduism—or at least Russell Brand's Sanskrit-tattoo version of it." [3] In May 2015, the Full Circle temple was raided by California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control officers. [7] The raid was apparently related to Full Circle's distribution of kombucha, a fermented beverage. [7] A spokesperson for the temple stated that they were unaware that they needed a license to distribute kombucha. [7] Full Circle closed in 2017 due to financial difficulties.
Keegan then took on a villainous role as a sadistic and sociopathic vampire named Blake in the horror film Living Among Us (2018). He appeared in a much-praised 2020 episode of the teen drama Trinkets and had a supporting role in the crime drama Adverse (2020). [8]
Keegan and his ex partner Arista Ilona have a daughter, born March 2016. [9] [10]
