Corey Stoll Signs With UTA

Corey Stoll has signed with UTA for representation, adding some fresh horsepower to his already well-calibrated team. He’s still managed by Suskin/Karshan and repped for PR by Viewpoint, meaning this isn’t a total overhaul—more like swapping in a new engine under the hood.

Stoll’s one of those actors who’s been quietly excellent for over a decade: dependable, versatile, and always one good role away from full-on household name status. You’ve seen him as Peter Russo in House of Cards (RIP that shower scene), as the buzzing antagonist in Ant-Man, and more recently, as a heavy in Billions and The Many Saints of Newark. He’s the guy casting directors call when they want gravitas without the ego, intensity without the scenery chewing.

UTA’s signing suggests they see more than just a character actor—they see a leading man in waiting. And in a market hungry for grown-up dramas, prestige thrillers,

But Castrol isn’t the only pit stop. Giannis will also serve as a face of bp’s TravelCenters
