Aaron Edward Eckhart (born March 12, 1968) is an American actor and producer. Born in Cupertino, California, Eckhart moved to the United Kingdom at early age, when his father relocated the family. Several years later, he began his acting career by performing in school plays, before moving to Australia for his high school senior year. He left high school without graduating, but earned a diploma through a professional education course, and graduated from Brigham Young University (BYU) in 1994 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in film. For much of the mid-1990s, he lived in New York City as a struggling, unemployed actor. As an undergraduate at BYU, Eckhart met director and writer Neil LaBute, who cast him in several of his own original plays. Five years later Eckhart made a debut as an unctuous, sociopathic ladies' man in LaBute's black comedy film In the Company of Men (1997). Under LaBute's guidance he worked in the director's films Your Friends & Neighbors (1998), Nurse Betty (2000), and Possession (2002). Eckhart gained wide recognition as George in Steven Soderbergh's critically acclaimed film Erin Brockovich (2000), and, in 2006, he received a Golden Globe nomination for his portrayal of Nick Naylor in Thank You for Smoking. He gained further mainstream breakout in 2008 when he starred in the blockbuster Batman film The Dark Knight as District Attorney Harvey Dent / Two-Face. Eckhart's other key roles include The Pledge (2001), The Core (2003), Paycheck (2003), Rabbit Hole (2010), Battle: Los Angeles (2011), Olympus Has Fallen (2013) and its sequel London Has Fallen (2016), I, Frankenstein (2014), Sully (2016), Midway (2019) and Line Of Duty (2019).

In the last summer of the 1970's in California, fraternal twins Josh and Kate Tobias are unsure of what they want to do with their lives after graduating from college. Josh, who yearns to be a writer, shoots the breeze at the local pub, playing pool with his childhood friends (pothead Geoff Wyatt, construction worker Luke Mosley, and Luke's pregnant wife Beth) and pining over his longtime crush Amanda Harper, an aspiring musician already in an on-again, off-again relationship with the town's bowling king, Steve Yeager. Kate, on the other hand, works a mundane nine-to-five job, waitressing at a crummy diner along with Beth and the cynical, acid-tongued Phoebe Dolan. Meanwhile, the twins' father Rick, a grizzled factory worker who lost his wife five years ago, finds himself reconnecting with his high school sweetheart, impassioned union member Elaine Novak. As the summer days wind down, the paths they forge lead them to roads they never expected to cross.
