“I never take for granted that I get to live out my dream on the stage every week and this new tour is something special that I can’t what to share with everyone,” Koy said.
As one of today’s premiere stand-up comedians, Koy has come a long way from his modest beginnings performing in a Las Vegas coffee house. His uniquely relatable comedy pulls inspiration from his colorful family that has reached all kinds of people and has translated into sold-out arenas around the world.
Koy starred in the 2022 Universal Pictures film “Easter Sunday.” Set around a family gathering to celebrate Easter Sunday, the comedy is based on Koy’s life experiences and stand-up comedy.
In 2023, Koy appeared in Disney’s “Haunted Mansion” and voiced characters in Netflix’s animated films, “Monkey King” and “Leo.” In 2024, he was most recently heard voicing the character Monkey King in the Paramount+ film, “The Tiger’s Apprentice.”
In 2023, it was announced that he inked a two-special deal with Netflix. The first special was filmed this past November at The Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, released in the summer of 2024. He’s had four highly rated specials including his Netflix stand-up special, “Live From The Los Angeles Forum,” which premiered globally on September 2022. The special was a follow-up to his 2019 Netflix special, “Comin’ In Hot.” Overall, Koy has had six highly rated and successful stand-up specials on Comedy Central and Netflix. In June 2020, the comedian released his first variety special, “Jo Koy: In His Elements” on Netflix, in which Koy brings the laughs and beats to Manila, spotlighting local culture in a one-of-a-kind show featuring Filipino-American comedians, DJs and B-boys.
In 2021, Koy released his first autobiography, “Mixed Plate: Chronicles of an All-American Combo” with Harper Collins Publishers to raved reviews. In this funny and moving memoir, Koy uncovers the stories behind his stand-up: the conflict, the drama and the laughter as he struggles to find his place in the entertainment industry, his home and around the world.
In 2019, Jo Koy reached No. 1 on the Billboard charts for his stand-up comedy album, “Live From Seattle,” and in 2018, he was given the prestigious “Stand-Up Comedian Of The Year” award at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal.
