Gary Owen has been entertaining audiences for more than two decades with his sharp observational humor and fearless storytelling. Known for his unapologetic, rule-defying style, his material draws from his personal life, time in the military and the everyday absurdities that connect people across backgrounds. With a fanbase that has grown by the millions in recent months and continues to surge across social media, Owen's reach has cemented his place as one of the most in-demand touring comedians today.

Beyond stand-up, Owen has appeared in a wide range of feature films including BACK ON THE STRIP with Tiffany Haddish and Wesley Snipes, MEET THE BLACKS and its sequel THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR, THINK LIKE A MAN and THINK LIKE A MAN TOO, RIDE ALONG with Ice Cube and Kevin Hart, LITTLE MAN opposite the Wayans Brothers, and DADDY DAY CARE with Eddie Murphy. He is also widely recognized for his scene-stealing role as "Bearcat" in the MGM film COLLEGE.

On television, Owen starred in his own BET series THE GARY OWEN SHOW and co-hosted TruTV's sketch series UPLOAD WITH SHAQUILLE O'NEAL. After meeting Tyler Perry on THE TOM JOYNER MORNING SHOW, he was cast in the recurring role of Zach the barber on the TBS comedy series TYLER PERRY'S HOUSE OF PAYNE.

Owen continues to write, produce and perform his own groundbreaking comedy specials, including BLACK FAMOUS, #DOIN' WHAT I DO, I GOT MY ASSOCIATES, I AGREE WITH MYSELF, TRUE STORY, URBAN LEGEND, and BREAKIN' OUT THE PARK. Most recently, he recorded two specials back-to-back--BROKEN FAMILY and GARY OWEN...NO S, released this past spring on YouTube.

In addition to his on-stage and on-screen work, Owen hosts his own podcast, #GETSOME WITH GARY OWEN, and has appeared on numerous others, including FLAGRANT PODCAST, TIGERBELLY, YOUR MOM'S HOUSE with Tom Segura & Christina P., CLUB SHAY SHAY and WE PLAYIN' SPADES PODCAST with Nick Cannon, among others.

Following a wave of record-breaking, sold-out performances at comedy clubs across the country, he recently announced his first major North American theater tour, NO HARD FEELINGS, which kicks off in early 2026.
