Rob Schneider is an accomplished actor, comedian, screenwriter and director. A stand-up comic and veteran of the award-winning NBC sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live, Schneider has gone on to a successful career in films, television and continues his worldwide standup tour. 

Schneider can currently be seen performing around the United States on his stand-up comedy tour and in DADDY DAUGHTER TRIP which he directed, stars in and produced. It also stars his daughters Miranda Scarlett Schneider and Elle King as well as Jackie Sandler, Monica Huarte, Migel Ángel Muñoz and John Cleese.

In addition, Schneider has just finished directing and co-starring in the Spanish language film, AMOR ES AMOR for Paramount Plus with Vadhir Derbez and Paulina Dávila, to be released in 2023. Later this year, Schneider will begin production on the action-comedy film PLEDGE TRIP alongside Jake T. Austin and Isabella Gomez.

Schneider’s first Netflix comedy special, “Asian Momma, Mexican Kids,” premiered globally on August 11, 2020. The special gives viewers a look at Schneider’s family and personal life through hilarious anecdotes. The special ends with a surprise duet performance with Schneider’s daughter Elle King. 

Born in San Francisco, Schneider’s family is of Filipino and Caucasian descent. His father was Jewish and his mother Catholic. His mixed background has been a common theme in his comedy acts. Schneider started his stand-up career in high school opening for the popular San Francisco band “Head On,” and was a regular guest on local radio. An opening slot for Dennis Miller garnered him an appearance on the HBO’s “13th Annual Young Comedians” special also hosted by Miller. The special led him to a coveted position as a writer for SNL in 1988. Schneider swiftly moved from a writer and featured player to a full cast member with a cast that included Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade and the late Chris Farley.
