Eventually he got a diploma through an adult education course which allowed him to enter and later graduate from BYU, Utah in 1994, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. He’d spend a good part of the 90’s as a struggling actor before being cast for a main role in In The Company of Men (1997).

    Aaron Eckhart Religion

    Aaron is an ex-Mormon. In an interview, he said “I’m sure people think I’m a Mormon, but I don’t know that I’m a Mormon anymore, you know? To be honest, to be perfectly clear, I’d be a hypocrite if I did say that I was, just because I haven’t lived that lifestyle for so many years.” His quote makes us believe he stopped being religious simply because of gradual changes to his lifestyle, rather than disagreeing with the religion.
