Yoga teacher and OM cover model, Erin Fogel,


graces the big screen in new US feature film


Y


oga teacher, actress and occasional OM cover model Erin Fogel is
now starring in her very own feature film, which she also
helped produce.
The Strike is a female-driven comedy set in New York City and
draws on some of Fogel’s own yoga background, including a scene
set inside her studio. She is also one of the founders of the House of Jai yoga
studio in Manhattan.
The American actress (who last graced our cover in September 2016) says the
film is based around three, less than talented, New York actors who after years
of missed opportunities, criticism, and bad first impressions, take fate into their
own hands when they devise a half-baked theatrical ‘siege’ in order to prove they
have what it takes to make their mark in the film business.
Written and directed by Guillermo Ivan, it also stars
Bronson Pinchot (whose past credits include Beverly Hills
Cop, True Romance and TV show Perfect Strangers), Paul
Calderon (Pulp Fiction), Guillermo Ivan (Vantage Point) and
Christopher Marquez (Habana Instant).
And, naturally, Fogel’s very excited about the
whole thing.
“The Strike has a multi-cultural and eclectic cast which
carries all the humour and funnies of a great comedy
film,” she tells OM. “It was exciting to act opposite Bronson
and bring him back into the limelight again. He is such a
talented, seasoned actor to work with.”
