Hello! I’m Max Cortezi. I am an actor, singer, and model based in New York City, currently pursuing professional work. I can be seen on screen in the upcoming feature films “Flavia” and “The Revisionist”.
Originally from Baltimore, MD, I began performing regionally in theaters, including Baltimore Center Stage and Stillpointe Theater. Eventually, I began performing internationally in both Shakespeare and “Cabaret”, as well as locally in play readings at Circle in the Square.
Since moving to the city, I graduated from NYU Tisch with a BFA in Drama with a minor in the Business of Entertainment, Media, and Technology. I deeply love filmmaking, Shakespeare, musical theater, and the personal connection that comes from storytelling. I want to tell stories that truly affect audiences and excite their imaginations. My current favorite show is Yellowjackets and my favorite band is Fleetwood Mac.
I enjoy playing a wide variety of roles, usually emotionally flawed young men. I’m a bit of a chameleon and work hard to be able to transform to fit many different roles. I always try to find the humanity in any character, from villain to hero. I love bringing messy, complicated life to any project. Nothing makes me more excited than storytelling.
