With Game of Thrones over, Winter is coming is no longer a battle cry or a call for regional allegiance. Now Winter is coming can mean there is a new film and Eric Winter is starring. The name Eric Winter strikes a bell. If it doesn’t then that is because you haven’t seen any of The Mentalist, The Rookie, and The Ugly Truth. You have missed a lot without missing too much. Here are quick facts about the star.
Birth and early life in California.
Eric Winter was born in La Miranda, California. His life goal was to become a medical doctor. Two things played decisive roles in his career. One, Eric is handsome with teasing eyes and over six feet tall. Two, he was broke. So to pay for college (he studied Psychology at the University of California in Los Angelos), he turned to his look and became a model.
While still in College, Eric caught the proverbial bug and decided that he was called to be a show person and not a medical doctor.

Besides and modeling, Winter has published a book and can be called an author. It is a children’s book, “Sebi and the Land of Cha Cha Cha” co-written with his second wife in 2017. He is still an author. There is no title of co-author.
On the movie aspect, Eric Winter played what turned out to be his most iconic role. He was the FBI agent and former NFL player Craig O’Laughlin who seduced his way into marrying and planting himself in the opposing camp.
