Damon Wayans Jr. Biography

Damon Wayans Jr. is an actor, comedian, and writer known for his standout roles in television and film. He is the eldest son of comedian Damon Wayans Sr. and a member of the Wayans family. Wayans Jr. developed a sense of humor and a talent for performance from a young age, establishing the groundwork for his career in Hollywood.

Wayans Jr.’s performance as Brad Williams on the ABC sitcom "Happy Endings" earned him widespread recognition and a nomination for the Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series in 2012. The show ran from 2011 to 2013 and gained a dedicated fan base. Wayans Jr.'s role in the Fox sitcom "New Girl" as Coach, which he first played in the show's pilot, further emphasized his position in comedy television. In spite of a temporary replacement by Lamorne Morris due to scheduling conflicts, Wayans Jr. made a return to "New Girl" for a Season 3 arc and later committed to a full season in 2014, remaining in the show for the rest of its run.

In film, Wayans Jr. has contributed to popular comedies such as "Let’s Be Cops" and "The Other Guys." He also demonstrated his voice acting skills in the animated films "Big Hero 6" as the character Wasabi and "The Land Before Time: Journey of the Brave." His film roles exhibit his ability to bring comedy and emotion to a range of characters. Wayans Jr.'s comedic skills were further showcased in "How to Be Single" alongside Dakota Johnson.

Aside from acting, Wayans Jr. is a writer and producer. He co-wrote and starred in the CBS show "Happy Together," alongside Amber Stevens West, which was inspired by Harry Styles' early life but was cancelled after 13 episodes. Wayans Jr. continued to write and develop new projects, such as "Poppa's House" where he co-stars along with his father Damon Wayans and serves as an Executive Producer in 2024. Wayans Jr. is also the host of "Raid the Cage" since 2023 and appeared in an episode of "Shrinking" titled "Made You Look" in 2024.
