Elias Koteas, born on March 11, 1961, is a versatile Canadian actor whose career spans from the neon-lit streets of Gattaca to the shadowy alleys of Collateral Damage. He has carved out a niche for himself in both television and film, from his recurring role as Alvin "Al" Olinsky in Chicago P.D. to his memorable turns in Now You See Me and Shutter Island. Koteas’s nuanced performances earned him a Canadian Screen Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Ararat, and his range extends across a diverse portfolio that includes The Thin Red Line, Exotica, and Zodiac.
