About
Hi, I’m Evan Mulrooney — actor, comedian, and former football player who was once politely told I would never make it on Wall Street (Shoutout to the University of Maryland academic advisors for the tough love.)
After realizing any normal job might not be my destiny, I signed up for an acting class in college and haven’t looked back. In 2016, I moved to Chicago and dove headfirst into the comedy scene, performing regularly at The Annoyance Theatre and finding my people (other weirdos who think being funny onstage is a viable career path).
Since then, I’ve gotten to work on incredible projects, including Only Murders In The Building (2025), Fargo, Justified: City Primeval, and South Side. You might’ve also seen me in commercials for Planet Fitness or on Instagram making absolutely zero sense.
These days, I’m based in Los Angeles, training with Aaron Speiser and Kay Aston at The Screen Acting Studio. I’m also an alum of Acting Studio Chicago, The Annoyance Theatre, and iO Chicago.
I love what I do, and I bring the same heart, hustle, and unhinged-ness to every thing I do.
