Orlando Jones is what happens when a brilliant joke writer becomes a chaos-powered storyteller with receipts. He started out writing for icons, Martin Lawrence, Sinbad, Jay Leno, Colin Quinn, Ben Stiller and co-wrote the pilot for the legendary sitcom Martin. Before that, he wrote on the groundbreaking NBC series A Different World.
Then he starred in the ADDY Award–winning McJordan McDonald’s campaign with Michael Jordan, launched the FX Network into 18 million homes, and became famous as the “Make 7 Up Yours” guy–the only ad campaign in history to move soda and cause arguments at PTA meetings.
A founding writer and original cast member of MADtv, after two seasons, he joined Larry David’s first film, Sour Grapes, then Robert Rodriguez tapped him for Dusk Till Dawn. His film and TV hits include Abbott Elementary, Evolution, The Replacements, Drumline, Office Space, Time Machine, Double Take, Swagger, Sleepy Hollow, Winning Time, Family Business: New Orleans, and his now-legendary portrayal of Mr. Nancy in American Gods.
His Comedy Central special was filmed in South Africa and broadcast across the continent. MTV dubbed him the King of Fandom, and at Comic-Con he literally married dozens of fans legally because SyFy asked and apparently no one said, “Don’t let Orlando do that.”
Onstage, he blends storytelling, razor-sharp political and cultural commentary, and the kind of jokes you think about three days later and start laughing in public like a lunatic.
