While training our local law enforcement, Reserve Lieutenant Aaron Cohen is now working full-time doing what many would consider a “dream job.
Even though Cohen is known by his comrades at the Houston County Sheriff’s Office as the one who trains the deputies, he has trained a few of Hollywood’s most familiar faces.He is the inventor of a cinematic fighting style called ‘Gunjitsu,’ an explosive blending of guns and martial arts.“I’ve been in ‘211′ with Nick Cage, I did a movie last summer with Antonio Banderas called ‘The Enforcer’ which is on ‘Amazon,’ Cohen said. “I was in ‘Rambo: Last Blood,’ the latest one.
Cohen wasn’t always an actor. He was connected to the film industry because he was a bodyguard for several celebrities. He eventually started training celebrities for fight scenes. While on the set for his first film, it was something that happened by chance.“On my first film 12 years ago called “Haywire” with Channing Tatum and Michael Fassbender, and Steven Soderbergh, the Oscar-winning director said, ‘Hey, you are going to be in the movie,’ Cohen explained. “I have been hired originally to train the actors, and he put me in front of the camera and that was it.”“Love the sheriff, love these dudes,” Cohen said.
In addition to acting, Cohen also works behind the scenes to produce and direct short films. One of Cohen’s most recent short films is an action movie called “Overwatch” which is on Prime Video.
