Kevin was just on stage in NEIL SIMON'S pulitzer prize winning play, LOST IN YONKERS at the 1200 seat LA MIRADA theater in Los Angeles.
Kevin reprised the role of Uncle Louie, which was originated by Kevin Spacey on Broadway in 1993.
- Look for Kevin as the villainous 'Dr. Finkle' in the Disney movie SPACE BUDDIES .
Available as of February 9th in either dvd or BLU RAY formats, its now the #5 top selling dvd. Yay!
- He's a 'tough as nails' marine in the 'based on a true story' film, BOHICA, directed by DJ Paul, with Nicholas Gonzales, Adam Rodriquez, and Brendan Sexton III, winner of the 'Special Jury Award' at the Atlanta film festival.
- Kevin was just in an episode of the hit CBS show Numbers It aired Friday, January 16th.
Kevin's first job on television was in November of 1995 on FRASIER. He had two lines. Other jobs soon followed; six weeks in Australia playing the 'baddie' in BEVERLY HILLS FAMILY ROBINSON with Sarah Michelle Geller, Martin Mull and Dyan Cannon.
After that, he landed a few more guest spots and then a series regular gig opposite Pauly Shore on PAULY. Seven episodes were shot of Pauly. It was cancelled after five aired. Three more pilots for CBS and NBC followed. None of them made it on the Fall lineup. So, while continuing to work in the theater with his beloved theatre company, Kevin continued to work on television shows in guest and recurring roles.
He recurred on BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER as Dreg, the lovable minion, and worked on one of his favorite shows, THE X-FILES in a memorable episode in Season 7 entitled Je Souhaite. During this time, Kevin also played a recurring role (the crazed clubber Earl) in FELICITY.
On FELICITY, Kevin met creator J.J. Abrams. The following year, Mr. Abrams was casting a pilot he had written entitled ALIAS. Kevin read for the role of Marshall J. Flinkman.
Originally the role was conceived as a 'man in his forties, balding, overweight, ponytail, motley-crue t-shirt wearing.." Kevin, did not, as they say, fit the bill. Fortunately, Mr. Abrams was open to Kevin's suggestions for the role. The two worked on conceiving and fleshing out the role to what it is today. Kevin says "I want people to empathize with the character. Marshall is a genius, but lacks any sort of social graces."
For five memorable seasons, Kevin played series regular, "Marshall J. Flinkman" on ABC’s hit drama Alias. One of the most-watched TV dramas. Created by Felicity scribe J.J. Abrams, Alias (ABC) resounds with high-energy action and brain-twisting espionage.
As Marshall Flinkman, TV Guide called Kevin one of TV'S TOP 10 Scene Stealers.
Since finishing ALIAS, Weisman has worked with esteemed director Rob Reiner on the upcoming FLIPPED, with Anthony Zuiker (creator of CSI) on the New York Times Best Selling digi novel, LEVEL 26, on Chris Peckover's upcoming indie, UNDOCUMENTED, on HUMAN TARGET (FOX), CSI MIAMI (CBS), MIAMI MEDICAL (CBS), THE FORGOTTEN (ABC), NUMBERS (CBS) and CSI NY (CBS). He has been a recurring character on MOONLIGHT (CBS) and guest starred as a villainous poisoner on CHUCK (NBC), a snarky college professor on OCTOBER ROAD (ABC) and as a character with high functioning Autism on THE GHOST WHISPERER (CBS). Previous television credits include recurring and guest starring roles on FELICITY, ROSWELL, BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, THE X-FILES, GIDEON’S CROSSING, FRASIER, E.R., JUST SHOOT ME and THE DREW CAREY SHOW .
Kevin’s film credits include the upcoming FLIPPED, directed by Rob Reiner and the indie, UNDOCUMENTED, directed by Chris Peckover. He was also featured in a leading role in the independent feature, B.O.H.I.C.A., which premiered at the 2008 Atlanta Film Festival and also screened at the WorldFest-Houston Intl. Film Festival (Special Jury Award Winner), the Newport Intl. Film Festival (Audience Award Winner, and the NY Intl. Latino Film Festival. D. J.

Miami), Brendan Sexton III (Boys Don’t Cry & Welcome To The Dollhouse), Nicholas Gonzalez (The O.C. & Resurrection Boulevard), Matthew Del Negro (The Sopranos & The West Wing), and Jaime McAdams.
