Erik Griffin doesn't just work in entertainment — he shapes it. A comedian, actor, and director whose fingerprints are all over some of the biggest moments in comedy, Griffin first planted his flag as the iconic Montez Walker on Comedy Central's WORKAHOLICS — and has been building an empire ever since. On the directing side, Griffin has stepped behind the camera in a big way, directing all of Matt Rife's Netflix comedy specials — including Natural Selection (2023), Lucid (2024), and A Christmas Crowd Work Special (2025). Turns out the man is just as sharp calling the shots as he is delivering them. His Hollywood resume keeps growing. Griffin appeared in THE EVERYTHING POT and landed a role in BEHEMOTH — the highly anticipated film starring Pedro Pascal, written and directed by the legendary Tony Gilroy (Andor, Michael Clayton). No big deal.Griffin starred as a series regular in Showtime's dark-comedy I'M DYING UP HERE, set in the infamous L.A. stand-up scene of the '70s, alongside Melissa Leo, Al Madrigal, and Ari Graynor — executive produced by Jim Carrey. He also delivered not one but two Showtime comedy specials: THE UGLY TRUTH and AmERIKan WARRIOR, streaming now. His television credits read like a very fun binge list: BLUNT TALK (Starz) with Patrick Stewart, Netflix's ONE DAY AT A TIME, FX's YOU'RE THE WORST, BOB'S BURGERS, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT, and Nickelodeon's HARVEY BREAKS. Oh, and MIKE & DAVE NEED WEDDING DATES on the film side, because why not. A nationally touring headliner who owns every stage he steps on, Griffin's comedy DNA is also locked in his debut album Technical Foul: Volume One and his Comedy Central Presents half-hour special.
