Corey Allen Kotler

Corey Allen Kotler has three movies coming out in 2016! 2016 is the 50th anniversary of the original Star Trek series and Corey Allen Kotler has been cast in Unbelievable!!!!!! the funniest Star Trek parody this side of the USS Enterprise. Corey Allen Kotler has been cast as Red Shoyt. And for those of you that are hard core Trekkies, you know what happens to the guy in the red shirt ( or should we say Shoyt) when he gets beamed down to a new planet. The cast is jam packed with actors from the original Star Trek series. The movie also stars Michael Madsen and Gilbert Gottfried and the legendary Nichelle Nichols and is written and directed by  Steven L. Fawcette. 

 In 1922 the silent film, Nosferatu was Hollywood’s very first ever vampire movie.   Corey Allen Kotler has been cast in the remake this blood chilling tale.  With the advent of modern technology, the film makers are extracting scenes from the original silent film and inserting contemporary actors (i.e yours truly, Corey Allen Kotler) to play the Inn Keeper. Nosferatu opens in theaters Halloween of 2016 Angels.

Corey Allen Kotler is currently filming his very first leading role in the mockumentary, Angels on Tap. Corey Allen Kotler plays movie mogul, Sammy Bachman who has out bid Harvey Weinstein for the rights to a book about a bar for Guardian Angels. The film also stars Edward Asner, Jamie Farr and Marion Ross.   Angels on Tap is the opus of legendary television writer, Burt Prelutsky (MASH, Dragnet) and directed by Trudy Sargent.  As Corey Allen Kotler put it,” I must truly have my very own guardian angel to be able to get the opportunity to work with legends that I grew up wanting to be like.”

Last year was one of the very best yet!  I was workin!  I had the blessing of getting the opportunity to work alongside the great, Taylor Swift in her Wildest Dreams video , directed by Joseph Kahn. “Lions and tigers and bears?” If you’ve seen the video, it was more like lions and giraffes and elephants. And FYI, Taylor Swift is hands down one of the nicest in Hollywood (or Nashville for that matter).

The FOX smash it, Brooklyn Nine was as much fun to film as it was to watch. It was a struggle to keep a serious mug while working opposite Andy Samberg.

Rizzoli and Isles on TNT – I spoke entirely Latvian in this role. I know what you’re thinking? “Do I speak Latvian?” Not a lat! (sorry I couldn’t resist that pun.) Actually not at all but I learned it and got to work with Angie Harmon as well as Bruce McGill  (D-Day from Animal House!) Animal House is my favorite comedy of all time!

I got to to work with Nichelle Nichols ( Lt. Uhura  from Star Trek!) and the

-H-I-L-A-R-I-O-U-S Gilbert Gottfried in the upcoming feature Unbelievable!

Then there was “hot soup in the summer time  sketch”  with  Dennis Leary on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

On Thanksgiving Eve I received the call that I booked a role in the upcoming feature film, Nosferatu. Yup, I had to pick up a Transylvanian accent fast! Nosferatu is a remake of the original 1922 silent film. Which happened to be Hollywood’s very first vampire movie. The good news is that this version is a speakie. What impressed me with the project is that they are keeping the original movie in the new version but with the advent of the green screen, they’re replacing the original  actors with contemporary actors, in particular “yours truly”.

And I ended 2015 off with a bang! by booking  an entire week on the CBS prime time  sitcom, 2 Broke Girls.  Working  on 2 Broke and getting the opportunity to work in front of a live studio audience  is pretty much a  top career highlight to date. What a cast! Kat Dennings, Beth Behrs, Jonathan Kite, Matthew Moy and the one and only Jennifer Collidge. The ultimate however was getting the opportunity to spend a week with Saturday Night Live icon, Garrett Morris! The man is a prince! Not to mention with the shows creator and executive producer of Sex in the City, Michael Patrick King.
