He's also moved into TV, appearing on "Modern Family," and the first season of "Wayward Pines," which earned him a Saturn Award nomination.
He's set to appear in "American Dreamer," based on a segment from "This American Life," alongside Peter Dinklage, Shirley MacLaine, Danny Glover, and Danny Pudi.
Dillon has famously never married.
