Andy Samberg
Nyles / Producer
With a diverse range of comedic talents, Andy Samberg has emerged as a captivating leading man on the big and small screen. A Golden Globe and Emmy® award winning actor, producer and writer, he continues to achieve critical acclaim both in front of and behind the camera.
Currently, Samberg produces and stars in the hit comedy series Brooklyn Nine-Nine which was recently picked up for an eighth season by NBC. Season 7 will debut on NBC on February 6, 2020. After being brought back by popular demand, the show has achieved critical-acclaim over the course of its run garnering the 2018 GLAAD Award for “Outstanding Comedy Series,” a 2015 Screen Actors Guild Nomination for “Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series,” the 2014 Golden Globe® for “Best Television Series, Comedy or Musical,” and Samberg’s award for “Best Actor in a TV Series, Musical or Comedy” for his role as detective Jake Peralta.
Upcoming, Samberg produced and stars in the indie film, Palm Springs opposite Cristin Milioti and J.K. Simmons. The film will be in dramatic competition at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival. Samberg will also be seen hosting the food competition series, Biggest Little Cook-Off and guest starring in the comedic murder-mystery series, Mapleworth Murders, both of which will debut on the digital platform Quibi on April 6, 2020.
Samberg recently lent his vocal talents to Netflix’ Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. He also co-executive produces Hulu’s Emmy nominated show, PEN15 starring Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle, as well as I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson for Netflix.
As young comics, Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone originated the highly successful digital short group, THE LONELY ISLAND—a name coined from the cramped West Coast apartment the three shared as upcoming comedians. The group currently has over 2.4 Billion views on YouTube.
They most recently released Netflix’ The Unauthorized Bash Brothers Experience, a Visual Poem and album about former Oakland A’s legends Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire, and in 2019 they embarked on their first ever U.S. tour which included the Bonnaroo Music Festival and 10 other sold out cities.
After joining Saturday Night Live in 2005—Samberg as a cast member and Taccone and Schaffer as writers and directors—THE LONELY ISLAND played a part in re-invigorating the series, creating the popular “SNL Digital Shorts.” Some of their notable shorts include D**k In A Box, Lazy Sunday, I’m On A Boat, Jack Sparrow, YOLO and The Natalie Portman Rap. In 2007, the trio won an Emmy® for “Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics” for D**k In A Box and a Peabody Award for the 2008-2009 season. In 2012, Samberg completed his 7th and final season as a cast member on Saturday Night Live.
