| Movie Posters Movie News Movie DVDs Movie Merchandise Movie Message Board Links About Us | | Christopher "Chris" Eugene O'Donnell (born June 26, 1970) is a Golden Globe Award-nominated American actor, perhaps best known for playing Robin in the Batman films, Batman Forever and Batman & Robin, Charlie Simms in Scent of a Woman, Finn Dandrigde in Grey's Anatomy, and more recently Jack McCauliffe in The Company. | | | | After the success of Circle of Friends (1995), O'Donnell succesfully auditioned for Robin in Batman Forever. The role of Robin was one of the most sought-after roles at that time. O'Donnell was part of a field that included DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Christian Bale (who went on to play the Dark Knight himself), Jude Law, Ewan MacGregor, Corey Haim, Corey Feldman, Tobey Stephens, and Scott Speedman. Producers narrowed their choices to DiCaprio and O'Donnell. At a comic book convention, they asked a group of eleven year-old boys, the target audience, attending which actor could beat the other in a fistfight. When the boys overwhelmingly declared O'Donnell the winner, he was ultimately given the role. Ironically, O'Donnell was 20th Century Fox's favorite choice for Jack Dawson in Titanic, but DiCaprio ended up receiving it. | | |
