Cole Morgen
Cole Morgen (born July 20, 1996) is a young actor and dancer who plays the part of Eric Valentine in the comedy film I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. In the part, he gets to display his talents in tap dancing and martial arts. This is Cole's first movie role.

He has participated in dancing competitions and won numerous awards and a national championship. The character he plays, Eric Valentine, is a young, somewhat effeminate boy, very artistic, creative and talented, who is no wimp or pushover.
