When a member of the legendary Wayans comedy dynasty takes the stage in December, Soboba Casino Resort is betting on a night of laughs.
SAN JACINTO, CA, UNITED STATES, November 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Soboba Casino Resort is proud to welcome comedian and actor Marlon Wayans to the Soboba Casino Resort Event Center on Friday, December 4th at 9pm.
Wayans first shot to national prominence as a performer and writer on the groundbreaking sketch comedy series “In Living Color,” a launching pad for countless comedy careers. From there, he joined forces with his brother Shawn Wayans to co-create and star in the long-running sitcom “The Wayans Bros.,” which held its spot on the air for five seasons. The sibling duo didn’t stop there—they brought their chemistry to the big screen with crowd-pleasing comedies “White Chicks,” “Little Man,” and “Don’t Be a Menace.” They also wrote and starred in the blockbuster horror spoofs “Scary Movie” and “Scary Movie 2,” and most recently, “Scary Movie 6” which was released this year.
Beyond the family collaborations, Wayans has built an extensive film career that includes “A Haunted House,” “A Haunted House 2,” “Fifty Shades of Black,” “Naked” and “Sextuplets.” His filmography also demonstrates impressive range, with dramatic roles in Darren Aronofsky’s acclaimed “Requiem for a Dream,” the Aretha Franklin biopic “Respect,” and the 2023 film “Air.” Additional credits span “The Ladykillers,” “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra,” “The Heat,” and “On the Rocks.” More recently, Wayans appeared in the Peacock series “Bel-Air” as Lou, the estranged father of Will, and in the 2025 psychological horror film “Him.”
Wayans continues to tour nationally as a stand-up comedian, releasing several comedy specials along the way. His 2024 Amazon Prime special, “Marlon Wayans: Good Grief,” and the 2023 HBO Max comedy special “Marlon Wayans: God Loves Me” are among his most recent offerings.
