Biography
Biography
Coraci was born in Shirley, New York. In 1984, he graduated from William Floyd High School, where he was on the wrestling team for several years. In 1988, he graduated from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in film. He has directed three successful films with Adam Sandler (The Wedding Singer, The Waterboy and Click) and several music videos for the actor. He worked as an actor in Sandler's video clip "The Lonesome Kicker," playing the character that gives the song its name. He directed the movie Around the World in 80 Days, starring Jackie Chan, which turned out to be a box office flop, grossing only $24 million in the U.S. (made on a budget of $110 million). Coraci also directed Zookeeper, a romantic comedy starring Kevin James and Rosario Dawson that was released in 2011.
