Well before he found success as an actor on various TV shows and films, Ritchson got his start in modeling, something he said left him with "scars" due to the "horrific environments" he faced.
After Ritchson was allegedly sexually assaulted by a "very famous photographer," he abruptly quit modeling and never returned.
Years later, Ritchson established himself as a successful actor. He's known for roles in "Blue Mountain State," "Smallville," "Titans," "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," "Reacher" and "War Machine."
