He credits that initially unwelcome downtime with his introduction to his true love: acting. He was cast in a Nickelodeon short series. LaVar did also make his way back to the field and played football for the TCU Horned Frogs as a starting free safety and punt returner, while starring in stage productions -- not the standard modus operandi for college athletes, nor a likely outcome after what could have been a sports career-ending injury. A man of true grit, he views every experience as an opportunity to learn and evolve.A social chameleon from an early age, LaVar moved with ease among friend groups in the rather racially segregated schools he attended in San Antonio; he has an easy, natural ability to build rapport with anyone. His affable, confident and welcoming nature is one of the reasons he has a wide range as an actor. He's also familiar with the roles of patient, involved father (of three) and happily-committed husband (of one).Though naturally gregarious and upbeat, LaVar is seeking darker roles in which he is able to embody more troubled, complex characters whose motives are questionable. He welcomes a challenge.LaVar studied acting for theatre, television and film at TCU (BFA Theatre-TV), has trained with multiple acting coaches, including Diane Christiansen, Nelson Parks and Molli Benson, as well as Richard Allen at TCU. He is forever learning the nuance of the craft by studying incomparable greats, such as Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, Samuel L. Jackson, Guy Pearce, Johnny Depp and Idris Elba, to name a few.
