Early life.
Meyer was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the son of Dorothy Ann (née Vial), a travel agent and former microbiologist, and Christopher William Meyer, a management consultant. He has lived in California, Texas, West Virginia, and New Jersey. He has an older brother, Frank, and a younger brother, Adam. Meyer attended elementary school with Drew Barrymore (and was apparently her first kiss) and also attended Beverly Hills High School. Through his elementary school, he came into contact with Barrymore's agent, who signed Meyer. As a little boy, he was mostly seen in television advertisements, and also appeared as a child participant in the game show "Child's Play". He also slept in a closed coffin for several years in high school.
Career.
Meyer played several roles as a druggie, starting with his debut in "" (1991), in which he was dispatched in a video game. His breakthrough screen role was in the teen hit "Clueless" (1995) as the skateboarding stoner. Meyer offered similar characterizations in "The Craft" and John Carpenter's "Escape from L.A." (both 1996). He played the best friend of an Olympic hopeful in the biopic "Prefontaine" (1997) and as a high-school student yearning to leave his hometown in "Dancer, Texas Pop. 81" (1998).
In "54" (also 1998), a look at life in the famous '70s nightspot Studio 54, the actor was cast as a busboy married to the coat check girl (Salma Hayek) and pursued by a bartender (Ryan Phillippe). Meyer is close friends with Phillippe, with whom he and Seth Green share a production company.
Meyer would subsequently appear in films including "Go" (1999) and "The Insider" (1999) before graduating to a full-fledged leading role in the DreamWorks hit "Road Trip" (2000), in which he again played a character travelling cross country, a college student hoping desperately to retrieve a videotape of himself having sex with another girl, which was accidentally mailed to his long-distance girlfriend. "Road Trip" marked the first indication that Meyer's well-developed slacker sidekick persona had matured and could be tweaked to make him a full-fledged leading man.
He was reteamed with Amy Smart in yet another racing cross country film, this time as part of the multi-plot ensemble of "Rat Race" (2001), a sort-of homage to the all-star screwball chase films of the 1960s, such as "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World." Meyer put in a supporting turn as Meg Ryan's character's brother in the whimsical fantasy-comedy "Kate & Leopold" (2001). Meyer also took on the role of Jon Arbuckle, the hapless owner of the famed comic book cat in the film adaptation of "Garfield" (2004).
Meyer also starred in "Blue State" with Anna Paquin in which he plays a passionately liberal guy on the campaign trail for John Kerry in the 2004 elections. He drunkenly pledges to move to Canada if Bush wins the election, and on his journey meets a mysterious young woman, played by Paquin. He co-starred with Matthew McConaughey in "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past" (2009). In (2021) Meyer starred opposite Emily Kinney and Giselle Eisenberg in the independent dark comedy The Enormity of Life about a suicidal man struggling with life and love. 
Meyer regularly does writing and voice work on "Robot Chicken", and was nominated for an Emmy for his writing on the "" specials. He also voiced the adolescent Joseph Gribble on the animated series "King of the Hill" and starred on the Adult Swim series "Titan Maximum".
