Biografía

He is a talented singer, and he has demonstrated it professionally on different occasions. He was invited to sing with Kelli O'Hara in the 2010 Kennedy Center Honors. He also sang with Diahann Carroll on Estafa y crimen (2009) S2, Ep13: Countermeasures.

Distant cousin of Justin Timberlake. Both share common descent from an Edward Bomer, who was born in 1690.

Bomer is often said to bear a strong physical resemblance to British actor Henry Cavill. At one time, both were set to portray Superman before the role was recast. Both got to essay the role years later, in the same year, Cavill in El hombre de acero (2013) and Bomer in Superman: Desatado (2013).

Cousin of Courteney Cox.

On February 11, 2012, while giving an acceptance speech for the New Generation Arts and Activism Award for his work in the fight against HIV/AIDS (at the Steve Chase Humanitarian Awards), Bomer publicly acknowledged for the first time that he is in a romantic relationship with Hollywood publicist Simon Halls. Bomer's homosexuality had previously been considered an "open secret" in Hollywood, and he had refused to comment one way or the other about his relationship or orientation.

[on working with R. Lee Ermey] "R. Lee's great. I've learned a lot from working with him. He's a tremendous actor, and he brings so much to the character and so much to the set. And we're very fortunate, 'cause he's one of those guys who actually, when he comes to the set in the morning, he just wants to make the scene the best it can possibly be, and he figures all that stuff out. And those are my favorite kind of people to work with. I've really enjoyed it. He's thoroughly entertaining and really does different stuff every take, and just really embodies the character".

[on auditioning for his role in Masacre en Texas: el inicio (2006)] "I'm a New York actor, so I heard about the project, and I put myself on tape twice from New York. And they said they were interested in me, so I flew myself out to L.A. to test for it with Michael Bay. And a great thing about this movie and, another way I think it's unique, is that there is more exposition. You really get to know the protagonists of this movie a lot more in the beginning and, hopefully, invest in them somehow so that, when bad things go happen to them, you really care. And I think that Michael Bay just wanted to make sure - there wasn't a lot of screaming and yelling. I think they could figure out from the scenes whether or not you could pull that off. I think he wanted to just see more of whether or not I understood the character's duality - how he could be a nice guy with his girlfriend, but how ultimately he is this military guy who has a lot of responsibility on his shoulders".

It was an amazing experience, I think the last time I sang on stage was 10 years ago.

I just do my work and live my life. There's always that volume knob of people's voices and speculation. But I found you can turn it as low as you want. I have a great family and people in my life. I don't focus on other parts of the business.

I'd inhabit a character until I saw another one. That accessed part of my imagination.
