Trivia

  • In the episode "Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti" of The Sopranos (1999), he plays Counter Boy and gets shot in the foot by Michael Imperioli. The scene was alluding to Imperioli's role of Spyder in Goodfellas (1990), in which he was shot in the foot.
  • Avid surfer and often participates in charities to raise money.
  • In both The Hurt Locker (2008) and Flight (2012), Geraghty played the junior member to a more experienced veteran in life-threatening situations. In both movies, he blames the veteran for an accident that left him with a debilitating leg injury. In both movies, the actor playing the senior role (Jeremy Renner in The Hurt Locker, Denzel Washington in Flight) earned an Oscar nomination for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role.
  • Graduated from Toms River East High School in 1993.
  • Has been in over a dozen national commercials.

Quotes

  • After all these years, I'm starting to learn what a good director does, and I know what a good one does with actors: help us navigate finer instincts, help us when we're wrong, encourage us when things are great.
  • You get a feeling about things, and if you trust yourself, which I've grown to do, I felt like I had a pretty good indication of how to play the role.
  • I don't think I'd ever get typecast as a soldier.
  • I think about 'The Hurt Locker,' and we made a film about three guys, three different looking guys with three very different energies.
