In 1990, he got his first cinematic role at the age of 17 in the film 'דרך הנשר' (The Eagle's Path) that was directed by Uri Barbash and starring Gidi Gov, Eli Danker and Nurit Galron.
In 1996, Golan starred in the Ken Russell-directed TV film Mindbender, a Uri Geller biopic.

Golan stated that he remembers that after the phone call ended, he was so happy and full of joy that Barbash was saving him from the desperation that he was experiencing during that time as an actor in his first phases on his career in the acting industry of London.
