Tyler Lee Hoechlin is an American actor. Born on September 11, 1987, in Corona California, Hoechlin is known for his roles as Tom Hank’s son in Road to Perdition (2002), Everybody Wants Some!! (2016) and Supergirl (2015). In the upcoming season of “Superman and Louis”, Tyler is expected to get a fresh look as Clark Kent. The 34-year-old actor showed off his new Superman suit while filming a few scenes on Wednesday (December 9) in Vancouver, Canada.
It is also rumored that he will be back with his co-stars Arden Cho, Daniel Sharman, and Michael Johnston in the upcoming Teen Wolf: The Movie. We did not get to see him in Batman vs Superman as Batman but we surely will see him in his red cape in the second season of Superman and Louis. In an interview with Empire, Hoechlin revealed that his time working on “Road to Perdition” helped him realize that he really enjoyed acting and that if his dream of baseball didn’t work out, he would become an actor.
Career
Apart from acting Tyler has also been a baseball player. He began playing the game at the age of seven. In the years 2004 and 2005, he played in the Area Code Games.

After the Arizona year, he was transferred to the University of California, Irvine. He played for the UC Irvine Anteaters as the infield second baseman. He also played in collegiate summer leagues during this time.
At a time, he did aim to build a career in baseball, giving it priority over his acting skills. Due to this, he turned down many auditions and meetings and even the role of Emmette Cullen for the Twilight series.
He pulled his hamstring which limited his ability to play and practice, during his junior year in college. This led him to participate in a number of auditions and finally decide to pursue acting as a full-time job on the advice of his coach.
