In 1998, at the age of 22, Worthington graduated from NIDA (Australia’s National Institute of Dramatic Art). In his first professional role, “Arthur Wellesley” in the Belvoir Street Theatre production “Judas Kiss” he got critical accolades for his performance (directed by Neil Armfield).
Is Sam Worthington actually paralyzed in real life?
These reports, however, are entirely incorrect and have no basis in reality. Worthington is not paralyzed and is capable of walking and moving around freely.

In January 2010, James described the prosthetics procedure in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. “John Rosengrant at Stan Winston’s studio took a mold from the legs of a paraplegic who had about Sam’s skeletal size, and then we created rubber legs,” he told MTV. Sam’s true legs are concealed within the chair.
