TRAILER & KEY ART HULU ORIGINAL "ATSUKO OKATSUKA: FATHER"
Hulu has released the official trailer and key art for
"Atsuko Okatsuka: Father."
Premiering on Friday, June 13 on Hulu, this is the eighth Original special in Hulu's new stand-up comedy slate, Hularious.
SYNOPSIS: Fans call her 'Mother,' but Atsuko is 'Father' - thriving professionally yet clueless about basics. A 7-year laundry hiatus and learning that marriage licenses precede weddings are just some hilariously relatable discoveries she shares in her special.
CREDITS: "Father" is written, performed and executive produced by Atsuko Okatsuka. Additional executive producers include Ally Engelberg and Ryan Harper Gray, who also directed the special.
BIO: Atsuko Okatsuka is a comedian and actress making waves across the globe with her one-of-a-kind humor, boundless energy, and infectious charm. Her highly anticipated second stand-up special, FATHER, is set to premiere in June on Hulu and internationally on Disney+. FATHER follows the massive success of Atsuko's debut special THE INTRUDER (HBO), which The New York Times called the "Best Debut Special of 2022" and Vulture and Variety named one of the "Best Specials of 2022." Atsuko's unique style of comedy - blending joy with vulnerability and unforgettable storytelling - is captivating audiences worldwide.
Her 2024-2025 FULL GROWN tour was a massive success, selling out over 200 shows in more than 100 cities across 20+ countries. Atsuko's comedic antics continue to go viral, and clips from THE INTRUDER have racked up over 100 million views. Her energy and humor earned her a spot on The Live List 2023 (in partnership with Paste Magazine, SARA Live, and The Black List). Whether it's her hilarious antics or her knack for being a trendsetter, Atsuko's impact is undeniable and widespread.
Outside of her stand-up career, Atsuko is taking over Hollywood with roles in two films that debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival - ALL THAT WE LOVE directed by Yen Tan and GROUP THERAPY directed by Neil Berkely, produced by Kevin Hart's Hartbeat Productions. She also wrapped filming OUTCOME (Apple+), a comedy featuring Jonah Hill and Keanu Reeves and will make her Pixar debut in the upcoming film ELIO (Disney).
Atsuko is racking up awards and accolades. She took home a Gracie Award for "Best Special" in 2023 for THE INTRUDER and was nominated for "Best Comedian" at the Wowie Awards. Variety named her one of the "10 Comics to Watch" in 2022, and Vulture crowned her late-night debut on The Late Late Show with James Corden as a win.
On TV, she's appeared in HISTORY OF THE WORLD PT. II (Hulu), ROOM 104 (HBO), and THE SHOW NEXT DOOR WITH RANDALL PARK (ROKU+). She was also recently featured on This American Life with Ira Glass, where she shared her inspiring immigrant story and talked about how she and her grandmother created the viral #DropChallenge together.
Atsuko's not just a comedy star - she's a force of nature who's teamed up with brands like Apple, Amazon Prime, Genesis, Priceline, Kind Bar, Secret Deodorant, and Kikori Whiskey. And now, with FATHER, she joins the "Hularious" comedy family alongside Jim Gaffigan, Bill Burr, Roy Wood Jr., and Ilana Glazer.
Atsuko Okatsuka is proof that humor has no borders. Whether on stage, in viral videos, or on screen, her distinctive bowl cut is hard to forget and will leave you wanting more.
