The Comedian background

The Comedian

A middle-aged comedian grapples with the pressures of staying funny in a shifting comedy landscape, confronting the realities of growing older.

Robert De Niro's character, Jackie, a comedian, struggles to redefine himself after being typecast as a TV character from his past. Following a confrontation with a fan, Jackie is ordered to perform community service, where he crosses paths with Harmony Schiltz, played by Leslie Mann.
