Erik Kovak

Erik first visited Italy for the filming of JOURNEY TO ITALY. It was our very first production (for Men of Odyssey) and we desperately needed a couple of seasoned 'pros' (Erik and German star Wolff) along with the many inexperienced, though enthusiastic, newcomers. He came back a year later for THE SUMMONER and again for HOTEL ITALIA, working both in front and behind the camera.

On loan from Bel Ami, Erik brought to the table an invaluable know-how. Yet, he maintained his boy-next-door charm and his no-attitude,no-nonsense demeanor. "Sex aside", Erik admits, "the thing I enjoy the most is working as a bartender. I studied bartending in Bratislava and had several job opportunities".

Tidbits

In JOURNEY TO ITALY, Erik was scheduled for one scene only (with Wolff and Dario D' Alba). But JOURNEY'S star, American Derek Cameron, was so enamored of him, he asked for -and obtained- an additional scene.
