An actor who appeared in the film "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" was convicted Thursday of the attempted premeditated murder of his ex-girlfriend in a knife attack.
San Diego County jurors also found Shelley Malil guilty of assault with a deadly weapon. He was acquitted of residential burglary.
Malil — who played Haziz, a co-worker of Steve Carell's character in "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" — could faces 21 years to life in prison for the 2008 stabbing of Kendra Beebe.
