Dane Cook has maintained his reputation as one of today's most prolific stand-up comedians while simultaneously distinguishing himself as a charismatic and versatile actor in a variety of film and television projects. Well-known for his appearances on Comedy Central and HBO specials, and for his successful comedy albums, including: Harmful If Swallowed; Retaliation; Vicious Circle; Rough Around The Edges: Live From Madison Square Garden; ISolated INcident; and Dane Cook: I Did My Best, Cook combines energetic physical comedy, clever wordplay and trenchant observations about human behavior. Cook's unique brand of stand-up and accessible guy-next-door attitude have galvanized audiences of all ages. In 2006, Retaliation became the highest charting comedy album in 28 years and went double platinum, earning him a place alongside best-selling comedy vets Bill Cosby, George Carlin and Steve Martin. After inking a multi-faceted production deal with HBO in 2006, Cook created, directed and starred in the network's nine-part comedy documentary series, "Tourgasm," and wrote, executive produced and starred in Vicious Circle, a feature-length stand-up event. In 2014, Cook reprised his role as the voice of Dusty in Disney's animated film "Planes: Fire & Rescue," the sequel to "Planes," which grossed over $219 million and $145 million worldwide respectively. Cook has guest starred on Comedy Central's "Workaholics," and his other film credits include starring roles in "My Best Friend's Girl," opposite Kate Hudson; "Dan In Real Life," opposite Steve Carell; and "Mr. Brooks," opposite Kevin Costner, among others. Cook currently lives in Los Angeles, where he continues to develop new comedy material, and film and television projects. |
