Biography

Erick McAllister was born in San Francisco, California and took an interest in entertaining people at an early age. When he wasn’t doing impersonations of Elvis, he was performing in numerous school plays and talent shows. He did stand-up comedy in college as well as MC-ing large events for the CSU. He eventually moved onto a career in sales and finance while also running a catering business but the bug never left him. He jumped back into training and has appeared in over 30 films and television productions since he made that decision.

His film debut came as the double-crossing sheriff in The Gunman. He then landed roles in multiple award winning films such as Butterfly Caught, The Brazilian Connection, From Under the Bridge and Soledad. Always wanting to learn and grow, he experienced the production side of the business and was the executive producer and lead in the film Facade.

He felt the need for change so he took a risk and moved from California to New York. Fortune favors the brave and he has since booked roles on Blue Bloods, The Equalizer, FBI and The Other Two. He’s landed recurring roles on Zero Day with another coming out in 2027.

He is the Financial Chair and Treasurer for the non-profit Rising Stars Scholarship Program, where they help aspiring actors who don’t have the financial ability to chase their dreams. When not on set, Erick loves to spend time with his dog, writing, reading, cooking and enjoying his ride on this 3rd rock from the sun as we all float together through space!
