Ramy Youssef is an award-winning Egyptian American creator, actor, producer, director, and comedian who brings his unique voice and perspective to his storytelling. Youssef created, produces, directs and stars in the hit Hulu show "Ramy," inspired by his own experiences centering around a first-generation Egyptian-American Muslim on a spiritual journey in his politically divided New Jersey neighborhood. He won a Golden Globe® in 2020 on behalf of "Ramy" in the category of "Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series - Musical or Comedy." In 2020, the Television Academy nominated Youssef for two Emmy Awards® in the categories of "Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series" and "Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series" on behalf of the second season of "Ramy." He also won the Peabody Award on behalf of the series. The third season of Youssef's widely celebrated "Ramy" premiered on September 30th, 2022.
Youssef was also nominated for a Critics' Choice Award and a Writers Guild Award for his one-hour HBO comedy special "Ramy Youssef: Feelings" produced by A24.
Youssef is a co-creator and executive producer of Netflix's new series "Mo," a semi-autobiographical series inspired by Amer's life as a Palestinian refugee growing up in Houston. "Mo" recently debuted to critical acclaim and was produced with A24 and Youssef's new production company, Cairo Cowboy. The show premiered in August of 2022. The series won the Gotham Award for Best Breakthrough Series Under 40 Minutes, and was recognized by AFI as one of their Top Television Programs of the year.
On the feature front, Youssef will also star alongside Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe and Mark Ruffalo in Yorgos Lanthimos' highly anticipated film POOR THINGS for Searchlight, which will make its debut in 2023.
Hilarious! Will definitely see him again the next time he comes by Toronto.
It was awkward to see someone promote Hamas' response to the Palestinian apartheid and oppression, as a warranted attack on Israel, while on a stage named for a prominent philanthropist that disapproved of extremist and supported dialogues of peace. Just as awkward was the crowds support of his ideas.
I was rolling over laughing in my seat. He’s funny, relatable, positive energy and he even interacts with the audience. I will be attending his stand up again if I get the chance. 10/10
Incredible. Works the crowd, hillarious take on life, unapologetic for all of who he is. He was just the best. And he makes sure his openers are from marginalized populations and underrepresented people in the comedy world. He's just..... simply the best.
I always get a bit nervous when I see a standup pull out their notebook but Ramy is one of the finest talents out there, making jokes off the cuff that had the entire audience doubled over. The material as always was poignant, important and powerful.
The show was perfect. Ramy is a comedic genius and he brought out amazing opening acts. Highly recommend 10/10
