Kevin Weisman was known for his role on
Alias as Marshall Flinkman. His positive exposure on the show earned him two Teen Choice Award nominations for Choice TV Sidekick. He portrayed a tech geek at SD-6 and eventually worked for the CIA. Known for his eccentric personality, he often babbled about technical topics and used unnecessary visual aids when giving presentations. Although socially inept, he was perceived as an expert in various fields, including robotics, chemistry, electronics, explosives, and computers. Apart from his work, he was known as the love interest of Carrie Bowman. Later, he married Carrie and eventually had children with her.
After his stint on Alias from 2001 to 2006, Kevin Weisman was cast in
Clerks II, the sequel to Kevin Smith's 1994 movie
Clerks. He played a Hobbit Lover, joining actors Brian O’Halloran, Jeff Anderson, Jason Mewes, and Kevin Smith. He also guest starred as Dennis Hightower on
Ghost Whisperer on the episode “The Ghost Within.”
Although
Alias already ended, Kevin Weisman will continue to be visible on television with his upcoming pilot. He will star on
Business Class, a comedy following a pair of sales representatives who are out on an adventure of a never-ending national business trip. The series will feature Weisman as G. Glenn Ross, alongside Mark Valley and Krista Allen. Next year, he will be gracing the silver screen with the movie
High Midnight. The action-thriller centers on the joint forces of a broken-down sheriff and a Victorian vampire hunter as they attempt to defeat an undead force invading a small town in New Mexico. The also cast includes William Baldwin, Thomas Kretschmann, Ted Raimi, Taylor Nichols, and Emilio Rivera.
