About Mike Epps
Comedian and actor Mike Epps has generated quite a buzz among his peers and within the industry for being one of the funniest comedic actors emerging in the Hollywood spotlight. Mike is currently on his own national comedy tour, Mike Epps: Don’t Take It Personal which is selling out major concert venues across the country. It was recently announced that Epps would play legendary comedian Richard Pryor in the star studded biopic set to film in 2016. “I don’t feel pressure from the audience necessarily, I feel pressure for myself to do right for Richard himself.” Epps can also be seen in the widely popular comedies Next Friday, How High, Dr. Doolittle 2, Survivors Remorse and the highly anticipated ABC show Uncle Buck.
