Jacob Kogan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jacob Kogan (born May 28, 1995 in New York City) is a young American actor of Russian ancestry. He is perhaps best known for playing the title role in the 2007 psychological thriller Joshua. He lives in New York City, where he attends a private school for the arts. In addition to acting, he also plays the guitar and the piano.

Before starring in Joshua, Kogan was a regular on the adult-oriented MTV2 sketch comedy television series, Wonder Showzen. He recently wrapped production on a film called Wherever You Are, from writer/director Rob Margolies. The film is expected to premiere in 2008.

It has been announced that Kogan will appear as an adolescent Spock in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek. His scene will reportedly be brief and will apparently be shared with Winona Ryder, who portrays Spock’s mother, Amanda Grayson. [1]
