Tyler was born on September 11, 1987, in Corona, California, to parents Don and Lori Hoechlin. Tyler has brothers, Tanner and Travis, and a sister Carrie.

At age 7, Hoechlin became passionate about baseball. Later, he played for the University of Arizona and the Battle Creek Bombers team in the Northwoods League, where the world's top players compete.

Acting career

Tyler started acting in films as a child. In 1998, the young actor appeared in the children's musical film Disney Sing Along Songs: Happy Haunting for Halloween. Together with other kids, he sang the most popular songs from Disney cartoons.

In 2002, Tyler played in tandem with Tom Hanks in Sam Mendes's gangster thriller Road to Perdition. He played Michael Sullivan Jr., a teenager who decides to discover what his father really does for a living, leading to devastating consequences.

The filmmakers chose Tyler from over 2,000 young actors who auditioned for the role. For filming, 14-year-old Hoechlin had to learn to drive, which he loved doing (though he was backed up by a stuntman).

The film won an Oscar for amazing cinematography, and Tyler himself was awarded the Saturn prize as the best young actor of the year.

The casting director of 7th Heaven noticed Hoechlin's performance in Road to Perdition, and in 2003, the young man joined the cast of this melodrama, aired since 1996. Tyler played Martin Brewer from Season 8 through Season 11, until the series ended. In 2004, the guy was nominated for the Teen Choice Award for the category Male Breakout Star.

The following year, the actor was again nominated, but already for the category TV Actor: Drama, but the award went to Adam Brody from The O.C. instead.

In 2007, the last season of the series 7th Heaven was filmed, but Hoechlin kept busy with new projects. Over the following three years, Tyler starred in the lead role in the horror film Grizzly Rage and Solstice and appeared in episodes of popular TV series CSI: Miami, My Boys, Castle and Lincoln Heights.

According to Zoomboola.com, 2011 was extremely successful for Tyler. Three films featuring Tyler were released that year ‒ the drama Open Gates (in the lead role) and the comedy Hall Pass with Owen Wilson, Jason Sudeikis and Christina Applegate (where Hoechlin had a supporting role) and the comedy short film Charlie Brown: Blockhead's Revenge, which also starred Holland Roden and Dylan O'Brien.

That same year, Tyler was cast as werewolf Derek Hale in the TV series Teen Wolf. In the supernatural teen drama, Hale was a main character from Season 1 to Season 4. On the set, Tyler's colleagues were Tyler Posey, Dylan O'Brien, Colton Haynes, Cody Christian, and Shelley Hennig.

In 2013, Hoechlin and his Teen Wolf castmates earned a Young Hollywood Award nomination for Best Ensemble. In 2014, Tyler won the Teen Choice Award for Choice Movie: Male Scene Stealer for his Derek Hale performance.

While filming the series kept Tyler busy, but he found time to play the lead role in the film Melvin Smarty and the comedy The Sticks, where he played sexy cop Clark Russell.

After stepping away from the TV series in 2014, Hoechlin began acting in two full-length films: the comedy Everybody Wants Some!!, about a group of baseball players in the 1980s, and the sports drama Undrafted. Both movies hit theaters in 2016.

Also in 2016, Tyler landed the role of Clark Kent in the TV series Supergirl. The lead role of Supergirl, Superman's cousin, was performed by Melissa Benoist, with Hoechlin appearing in just 4 episodes.

In April 2017, the action movie Stratton was released, about the clash between the special operations forces of the British Armed Forces and international terrorists. Alongside Tyler, Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films), Dominic Cooper, and Connie Nielsen appeared in the film. The film earned poor reviews from audiences, with critics calling Simon West's direction sterile.

In July and September 2017, Hoechlin returned to Teen Wolf for three episodes of the 6th season after sitting out season 5.

Tyler appeared in several films released in 2018, including Fifty Shades Freed, the third installment of the blockbuster romance saga. Hoechlin played Boyce Fox, a talented author and Anastacia Steele's (Dakota Johnson) former colleague, who signs a contract with Christian Grey's (Jamie Dornan) company.

In early 2004, 16-year-old Tyler dated American actress and pop singer Ashlee Simpson, the younger sister of the singer Jessica Simpson for about 2 months.

There are various rumors about the nature of the relationship between Tyler and Dylan

In 2005, actress and singer Candice Accola, known for the role of Caroline Forbes in the TV series The Vampire Diaries, became Tyler's girlfriend. After breaking up with Candice, Hoechlin started dating Mackenzie Rosman, the actress, and his co-star from 7th Heaven, but the relationship did not last long.

From 2010 to 2012, Tyler dated actress Rachele Brooke Smith, and then from 2012 to 2015 dated Brittany Snow, an actress from the films American Dreams and Pitch Perfect.

Tyler also dated the model, TV host, and actress Jill Wagner, who also starred in the TV series Teen Wolf as Kate Argent.

In December 2015, the paparazzi photographed Tyler in Rome, walking arm-in-arm with the German model Alena Gerber. The lovers did not comment on the situation at all, but according to reports, their brief relationship ended at the beginning of 2016. However, some fans speculated the Rome photos were just a PR stunt since at the time Alena had an affair with German footballer Clemens Fritz.
