Faris moved from Houston to Parma, Ohio, at age 12 with his mother. He attended Padua Franciscan High School, and was one of the few non-Catholic students on the campus. He graduated with honors in 2000.

Faris decided to become an actor at the age of 17. He began his acting and modeling career in Cleveland at Barbizon, and later moved to the International Model and Talent Association with Stone Model & Talent.

Three weeks after high school graduation, Faris and his best friend moved to California. But after three days in Los Angeles, Faris' best friend could not handle the L.A. culture and returned to Ohio. He was cast in the role of Danny's gunner in Michael Bay's blockbuster war film Pearl Harbor along side well-known stars Ben Affleck and Josh Hartnett. It was this role which launched his career.

Faris starred in many different projects, including two television shows, Life As We Know It, and Reunion, both canceled before the end of their first season. He also played William Beardsley in Yours, Mine and Ours and he has been a guest star on other television shows.

Sean has also starred in Sleepover with Alexa Vega in 2004.

  • Nominated for the Young Actors Award at the 7th Annual Young Hollywood Awards.
  • Has one brother and one step-sister.
  • Mastered the training of hockey for the TV show Life As We Know It.
  • While auditioning for the role of Dino Whitman in Life As We Know It, he helped newcomer Missy Peregrym by simply wearing slippers. When he entered the room for the read-through, Missy remarked, "Why are you wearing slippers?" The casting directors felt the connection between them.
  • Named 38 of magazine Elle Girl's 50 Sexiest Guys.

Wikiquote has a collection of quotations related to:
  • "High school is high school, but it's not until you get out of high school that you realize that it's just a stepping stone in life. Nothing is easy about high school. I didn't know where I fit. There are so many cliques of people who are popular and who are not. You get too caught up trying to figure out where you fit in the whole scheme of things, but really, it truly doesn't matter. All that matters is that you have your friends who are your friends -- period." Interview with Tim Lammers, July 2004.
