LCC Performing Arts Producer Melissa Kaplan helps co-host the next two segments, featuring “accidental” Hollywood based actor Chad Collins. Collins, who long career includes being the star of the “Sniper” movie franchise since 2011. Now an international star for the role of “Sgt Brandon Beckett” Collins plays the son of Tom Berenger’s original legendary Marine sniper. The films have continued to garner attention and success and Collins has gotten to co-star along side actors: Berenger, Billy Zane, and Dennis Haysbert. This month, Collin’s third installment of the franchise ‘SNIPER-GHOST SHOOTER,’ was released, and he gets to work again with co-stars Zane and Haysbert in it.

The New York State born Collins shares that his entre into acting was an accident and a long shoot that has turned into a career. After moving to LA to work in entertainment PR, a talent manager suggested acting courses and the rest, as they say, is history. Collins also stars this fall in the recurring role of the new digital horror series “Freakish” from Awesomeness TV for Hulu. Check out TheWrap.com for more on that role. Also coming from Collins is the independent action-horror film “HOWLERS”, from director Josh Ridgway, where he stars in the lead role of ‘Colt”, a werewolf slayer from the old west who someone ends up transported to modern day. The film co-stars Sean Patrick Flannery. Check it out at JoBlo.com

Collins has been busy as an actor with numerous television roles from “Castle” to ABC’s hit show “Once Upon a Time”.
