Shawn Wayans

Shawn Wayans made his acting debut in 1989 in his brother Keenen Ivory

Wayans’ feature film “I’m Gonna Get You Sucka.” Immediately following

his feature film debut, Shawn joined the cast of the Emmy Award winning

comedy series, “In Living Color.”

Shawn starred in the box office hits, “Little Man” and “White Chicks,” both

of which he also co-wrote and co-executive produced. Shawn began cowriting

his string of blockbusters with the smash “Scary Movie” where he also

played Ray, an ambiguously gay football jock, alongside his brother Marlon

Wayans, and directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans. Co-written, co-executive

produced by and starring Shawn Wayans, “Scary Movie 2” was the only

sequel in the “Scary Movie” franchise with direct Wayans involvement.

Shawn will next be seen on the big screen in “Dance Flick,” the new comedy

co-written with brothers Marlon and Keenen Ivory.

When not on the road performing standup, Shawn can be found hard at work in

the “lab” where he and his brothers are busy concocting their next project.
