Liev Schreiber was a highly respected stage and screen actor whose deep voice and serious countenance lent itself well to playing intense, dramatic roles. He came to prominence in the late 1990s after a long string of performances in indie features, and gained widespread notice as town loner and red herring Cotton Weary in Wes Craven's "Scream" (1996) and its two sequels. The exposure helped usher him into more mainstream projects, such the HBO TV movie "RKO 281" (1999), for which he played Orson Welles; the Tom Clancy adventure "The Sum of All Fears" (2002); and the cable series "Ray Donovan" (Showtime 2013- ). Off camera, Schreiber was a Tony Award winner and veteran of numerous New York stage productions, making his directorial debut with an adaptation of Jonathan Safran Foer's "Everything is Illuminated" (2005), proving that he possessed talents far beyond simply acting.
