Marlon Wayans was born in New York City on July 23, 1972 into an ordinary family. Marlon’s father works as a manager in a supermarket, and his mother combines housekeeping with social work. The family has ten children and Marlon is the youngest of them.
As a child, Marlon studied at the Fiorello H music school, graduated from the art school, many of whose students became celebrities, then went to university. Marlon came to show business on the advice of his older brother Keenan Ivory. In 1988, in his brother’s film I’ll Get You, Bastard, he played a small role, after which he became a regular participant in his show In Living Color.
Marlon originally played with his brother Sean. The guys made a great comedy couple. The films in which they participated were a huge success with the audience.
Gradually, Marlon's responsibilities expanded. He did the work of director, screenwriter and played the main roles. As a result, the Wayans family clan produced several famous paintings, including:
"Don't threaten South Central." , which was released in 1996, and the film "A very scary movie", which appeared on the screens in 2000.
In 1997, Marlon Wayans played in the film “The Sixth Player”, in 1998 in the film “Without Feelings”, and in 2000 in “Dragon’s Dungeon”. But the multifaceted talent of the young actor was revealed in the dramatic film Requiem for a Dream, where a cardinal change of his role took place.
Together with his brother Sean, he starred in the sequel to the film Scary Movie, where he also acted as a screenwriter and producer. Recently, the fantastic action film “Cobra Throw” was shown in theaters – this is one of Wayans’ last works.
Marlon Wayans currently lives in New York. It is still in demand and successful. With his girlfriend Angelica Zaccari, Marlon raises two children – daughter Ernai Zaccari and son Sean Howell. /
