Paul Rossilli is an American actor whose Star Trek role is Brigadier Kerla in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991).
Kerla is the chancellor's military adviser and comes aboard the Enterprise with Gorkon's party for the diplomatic dinner, where he is quick to take offence at human assumptions. After the attack on Kronos One he angrily confronts Kirk and McCoy when they beam over to help.
Once Azetbur succeeds her father, Kerla presses her to strike at the Federation while the Empire still can, but she overrules him. He attends the Khitomer conference with her. Rossilli's other work consists largely of television guest roles.
