He steadily became enamoured with acting ,and although it was not really his choice but his parents’, he still eventually chose it as a full-time job and a career. After matriculating from a local high school in New York, Marc decided to completely focus on his acting career, and didn’t enroll at college.

Career as an actor – movies

Marc’s career was officially launched in 1995 when he got to play the lead role in the “Losing Isaiah” movie. His next role came in 2000, when he played Will in “Stuart Little 2” – in the same year, he appeared in “Brown Sugar” and “Friday After Next”.

Rumor has it that the popular actor might be gay – it began circulating the internet only because of the fact that Marc doesn’t usually talk about girls, and is rarely seen in their company – he hasn’t commented on the rumors and therefore nothing about his sexual orientation can be claimed with certainty.

He is rumored to be currently dating an actress whom he worked with on the set of the “Law and Order: Special Victims Unit” in 2015, however, neither of them have addressed the rumors, and so judging by his social media accounts and his secrecy, Marc is currently single, hasn’t married, and doesn’t have kids.

Marc is mainly focused on his acting career, but there are still things he enjoys doing in his free time.

Marc is very keen on keeping up with the latest fashion trends, and often uploads pictures of his clothes onto his Instagram account – he started his career as a model, and would like to become a popular model one day as well. He is not much of a traveler, but has still been to several US states and is planning on visiting Europe in 2020.

Marc was very sporting in high school, as he played both baseball and football but stopped once he matriculated – today, he only watches sports games on TV, and occasionally live at stadia, and has a couple of training sessions at a local gym. He is a big fan of winter, as he’s an avid skier, while he also knows how to snowboard. Marc likes cars, especially vintage, but nevertheless prefers to use a bicycle to get around the city.

Appearance and net worth

Marc is currently 29 years old. He has short black hair and brown eyes, and is 5ft 3ins (1.6m) tall while his weight is not known. According to authoritative sources, his current net worth has been estimated to be more than $600,000, and is steadily rising thanks to his acting career.
