His success in comedy extends beyond the stand-up stage. His new HBO MAX series, “Bookie,” co-produced by Maniscalco and legendary director, writer and producer Chuck Lorre, follows a veteran bookie “navigating the impending legalization of sports gambling and the evolving culture that bounces him around Los Angeles.”
He can also be seen on the big screen in projects such as the animated feature film “The Super Mario Bros. Movie,” the Neil Bogart biopic “Spinning Gold,” and the dramedy “Somewhere in Queens” with Ray Romano and Laurie Metcalf. He also co-wrote and starred in “About My Father,” loosely based on his Italian family experience, alongside Robert De Niro. He also appeared in Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, “The Irishman” as well as Peter Farrelly’s Oscar-winning “Green Book.”
Maniscalco is also an author of the national best-selling memoir, “Stay Hungry,” an “inspiring, honest and uproarious collection of essays that traces his career from the trials and tribulations — to reaching the pinnacles of comedy success.”
