Biography

Noted Hungarian-born Canadian actor, Kovacs, embarked on a remarkable journey that would shape his future in the world of performing arts. His academic pursuits took him to Toronto, Canada, where he developed a profound interest in theater, laying the foundation for his future endeavors.

As Kovacs began to hone his craft, he made his mark on the stage, gradually transitioning to film acting. A significant turning point in his career came when he collaborated with renowned Canadian director, David Cronenberg, who would go on to direct Kovacs in several notable films, including the 1983 psychological thriller, "Dead Zone".
