The handsome TV-doctor is single again:

After four years of marriage it was over. Peter Berg said "good bye" to his wife Elisabeth Rogers last summer. In the separation-papers the couple gave many reasons what caused the break-up!

Peter Berg who plays Dr.Billy Kronk in the series Chicago Hope admits that he's not the easiest person to live with.
He would love to tell about his special working routines.
"I write scripts for movies and TV, and I can't get disturbed when I'm working. I write for hand and take in on small worn out hotels.There I'm up the whole night waiting for creativity to come .It's the first thing oi the morning, between 06:00 am and 10:00 am that I start writing.Then my brain works and I can 'pull' out sides of myself that go away in the daily stress", he tells the magazine EW.

CHANGING SEX:

In addition to the writing it's a hard job, ten months in the year to work on Chicago Hope.There he plays the big-mouthed Dr.Billy Kronk.
He came into the series as a hockeyplayer who saved another hockeyplayer's life. His macho-attitude calmed a bit down when he found out that his sexy girlfriend had been a man, who had changed sex and who also had been in the same grade with him in Junior High School ! Dr.Kronk got homophobic - and fell in love with Dr.Grad (Jayne Brook) instead. Now the two are going to be three in the TV-series.
In reality things don't go that well for Peter Berg. Four Years of marriage with the Calvin Klein model Elizabeth Rogers ended up without children in a painful divorce."It was painful,but now I'm glad we didn't have any children. In that case we would only be hurting one another," says Peter Berg, maybe the most handsome doctor on TV.

GETS SEX-LETTERS:

He knows the 'ER'-compeditor Noah Wyle. They were starring together in a theatre play called 'The 24th day' where they played two gay men.
"Busloads of Japanese students came to sees us. They had no idea what the play was about", Peter recalls.
Both of them get loads of fan-mail from anxious female fans - from Norway, too.
What do the girls write most about? - "That they want to have sex with me", Peter tells the magazine 'Cosmopolitan'.
Now that you are divorced, do you take any advantage of these offers?- "The opportunity to have uncommitted sex with a lot of women is something you enjoy less than in your younger years - you should think! I'm rather looking for a woman that I can have a nice and stable relationship with."
In Norway Chicago Hope is more popular than in the US. What's the reason?- " 'ER' airs after 'Seinfeld' which is the most watched of all TV-series in the US. The network draws so many viewers that they could have shown a video of my dog sleeping and still keep half of the audience", Peter Berg claims.

RAW MOVIE:

His last job before Hollywood called was as a crewman on a fishing boat. He has also worked as a pizza delivery boy and as a stow (?) on the harbour in Long Beach. Now he's loaded with work: with filming, writing - and with Chicago Hope.
'Entertainment Weekly' has just nominated him to be one of the most creative people because he's more than just a good actor with a pretty face.
This fall will be the premiere of 'Very Bad Things'. That movie is twisted and raw, everything else looks like Mary Poppins compared to it, 'EW' says. Berg has written the script and directed the movie.
He had a big part in the movie 'Copland' and he wrote the script to the movie 'Furious George' himself, in which he acts with his buddy Micheal 'Batman' Keaton.But the big breakthrough came as Dr.Kronk.
How did you get the part on Chicago Hope?-"I was asked by the producer David E. Kelley to show up at the auditions. Since he's married to Michelle Pfeiffer I thought it was a great opportunity to get to meet her", Peter jokes. He was chosen for the part among 800 other candidates !
He also unveils a secret about the gang that makes Chicago Hope in an interview with an American internet-magazine: "The actors here are as lifeful as few others.It goes in high waves in the studio.Often with awesome arguing! We are many strong personalities, and that is not always as easy."
Do you like working on Chicago Hope, and are you freinds with any of the other actors/actresses in the show ?- "Let me put it like this: yes and no !"
