Topher Grace is an American film and television actor best known for playing Eric Forman on Fox's beloved throwback sitcom That '70s Show (1998-2006) and Eddie Brock/Venom in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 3 (2007). Grace was born in New York City on July 12, 1978. That '70s Show was Grace's first big professional gig, and the enormously popular show, co-starring Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher, catapulted him to young star and household name status. Though he only stayed on until the seventh season, he made a cameo in the season's finale episode in its eighth season. His film credits include Steven Soderbergh's Traffic (2000), How to Win a Date with Todd Hamilton! (2004), Predators (2010), and The Big Wedding (2013).
