Adam Brody is glad hit show The O.C. has come to a close, because he had no choice but to test himself in other roles. The 27-year-old played Seth Cohen on the teen drama between 2003 and 2006 and loved his job so much, he admits he needed a push to seek fresh challenges.

He is now looking to make more movies after earning good reviews for his performances in Thank You For Smoking and Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

He says, "We all got on so well and the scripts were so good that we would've done it for years. This way we're forced out into the world. I can play new geeks now."
