Tommy Davidson’s exceptional range – from stand-up comedy and acting to versatile music accomplishments – has earned him a reputation as an extraordinary performer who delivers no matter the arena. Best known as one of the stars of the hit television show In Living Color, Davidson’s visibility has allowed him to become a household name known for his innovative talent across all platforms. His forthcoming series, Varnell (BET), in which he partners with Martin Lawrence, is one of the most eagerly anticipated of 2026 and premieres on Paramount+ on September 1 with a late August impressive rollout campaign.
Davidson started his career as a standup comedian in Washington D.C., earning an ardent following. Spotted by major concert promoters, he was first booked as the opening act for Patti LaBelle, Kenny G, and Luther Vandross. It wasn’t long before he came to Hollywood and was headlining the biggest rooms and met Robert Townsend. This led to his movie debut, Partners in Crime, the conduit to Keenan Ivory Wayans, who offered Tommy the opportunity to audition. Soon, history was made with ILC.
Davidson starred in Disney’s beloved animated series The Proud Family (2001-05) and is now the main star in its current animated series, “The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder” (Disney +) now in its fourth season. Other notable guest starring credits include comedy series Poppa’s House opposite Damon Wayans and The Neighborhood (both CBS), VH1’s hit A Black Lady Sketch Show; the Nick Cannon-directed Miracles Across 125th Street, Netflix’s Sarah Cooper: Everything’s Fine and many more.
The multihyphenate is perhaps best known for starring in the groundbreaking sketch comedy series In Living Color and becoming a standout with his impressions of Sammy Davis Jr., Michael Jackson and other entertainment icons. His performance on the series resulted in three Showtime specials: On Strength of New York, Illin’ in Philly, and Takin’ it to DC. Davidson also hosted and starred in the network’s Chocolate Sundaes Comedy Show, as well as three seasons of ABC’s Vacation Creation.
Davidson voiced the series regular role of Cream Corn in the Adult Swim action-comedy spoof Black Dynamite and has also made multiple guest appearances on hit shows like CBS’ Poppa’s House opposite Damon Wayans last year and just filmed BET’s award-winning Ms. Pat Show, consistently garnering Emmy nominations. He continues to co-headline with Katt Williams, Mark Curry and others, selling out large areas
across the country.
Davidson’s feature credits include Spike Lee’s Bamboozled, Morgan Creek’s Juwanna Mann, Ace Ventura II: When Nature Calls opposite Jim Carrey, and Strictly Business opposite Halle Berry among others. He also recently starred in the feature documentaries I Am Comic opposite Tim Allen and Lewis Black and Dying Laughing alongside Jamie Foxx, Kevin Hart, Amy Schumer and Sarah Silverman.
