With “Him” releasing this past weekend, it’s a great time to take a look back at the life and career of Marlon Wayans. Born July 23, 1972, in New York City, Marlon Lamont Wayans is the youngest of ten children in the Wayans family. From early on, Marlon Wayans was surrounded by a family deeply rooted in comedy and entertainment. His older brothers — Keenan Ivory Wayans, Damon Wayans Sr., and Shawn Wayans, known as “the wayans bros” or “the wayans brothers,” had already established themselves in television, sketch comedy, film writing, and acting.
