Jason Segel Actor, screenwriter, and producer

Jason Segel’s first major role was as stoner “freak” Nick Andopolis on the critically acclaimed short-lived of the 1999 NBC comedy-drama series Freaks and Geeks. The series revolved around a group of suburban Detroit high school students circa in 1980. He personally composed a song of his character, Nick, to sing to the lead female character, Lindsay (Linda Cardellini).

He had recurring roles on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation as Neil Jansen and Undeclared as Eric. He then played Marshall Eriksen on the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother; he previously stated that he would move on to other projects in 2013 when his contract expires but it was successfully convinced to finish the series after its ninth season in 2014.

Jason made his film debut with Can’t Hardly Wait in 1998. His other early feature film appearances include Slackers, SLC Punk!, The Good Humor Man, and Dead Man on Campus. In 2007, he appeared in Knocked Up, directed by Freaks and Geeks producer Judd Apatow.

He has also starred in the lead role of 2008’s Forgetting Sarah Marshall, a film that he wrote and Apatow produced with Shauna Robertson for Universal Pictures. He has even starred in I Love You, Man, which was released on March 20, 2009, by DreamWorks. In Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Segel’s character writes a “Dracula” musical performed by puppets.

He also appeared in a full-frontal nude scene in the film. In an interview, he stated that the Dracula musical with puppets, as well as being broken up with while naked, were real experiences he wrote into the movie. Those cloth creatures were custom-made by the Jim Henson Company, and the experience emboldened Segel to pitch his concept for a Muppets movie.

Segel performed a song from the film, “Dracula’s Lament”, on the 1000th episode of The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. For the 2010 comedy Get Him to the Greek, Segel co-wrote most of the soundtrack’s music which was performed by the fictional band Infant Sorrow. He also appeared on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and sang an original song entitled “Wonky Eyed Girl”.

In 2010, he voiced Gru’s arch-rival Vector in the Universal’s CGI animated film, Despicable Me and appeared as “Horatio” in a fantasy comedy film Gulliver’s Travels directed by Rob Letterman and very loosely based on Part One of the 18th-century novel of the same name by Jonathan Swift. Segel appeared in Bad Teacher, starring Cameron Diaz, which opened in June 2011.

He played gym teacher and thwarted suitor, Russell Gettis. Along with Nicholas Stoller, Jason approached Disney in 2007 to write the latest Muppets film. Disney was unsure of how to make the request, as he had just done frontal nudity in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, but after realizing that he was an avid fan, the project was approved.

He stated that he wanted to do the film because the last film in the series to be released in theaters was Muppets from Space in 1999, and he felt that the younger generation was missing out on enjoying one of his childhood favorites. Jason decided not to star in the sequel of The Muppets, Muppets Most Wanted.

He has also filmed in The Five-Year Engagement, with Emily Blunt, in Michigan, in 2011 and the film was released on April 27, 2012. He was also cast in the film based on the 2012 Quebec maple syrup heist, which was directed by Seth Gordon. In 2013, Segel revealed he was working on a series of young adult novels, based on a story he conceived when he was 21.

In the fall of 2014, the first novel of the series Nightmares!, co-written with Kirsten Miller, was released, with the followup coming out the following year. In 2015, Segel received praise for his portrayal of the late author David Foster Wallace in the independent biographical drama film The End of the Tour. For his performance, he earned an Independent Spirit Award nomination for Best Male Lead. In 2017, Segel and Miller released their first young adult novel, Otherworld.

Jason Segel Philadelphia

Philadelphia production wrapped up for Segel’s series Dispatches From Elsewhere, which is expected to debut on AMC in 2020. Segel, 39, created and stars in the series.

Jason Segel How I met your Mother

It all started when his best friend, Marshall, drops the bombshell that he plans to propose to longtime girlfriend Lily, a kindergarten teacher. Suddenly, Ted realizes that he had better get a move on if he hopes to find true love. How I Met Your Mother ran for nine seasons on CBS from 2005-2014.

Helping him in the quest is Barney, a friend with endless often outrageous opinions, a penchant for suits and a foolproof way to meet women. When Ted meets Robin, he is sure it’s love at first sight, but the affair fizzles into friendship.

The actors on the show certainly did not expect the show to last nine seasons. Nor did the producers, found themselves increasingly straining how long a guy could tell the story of how he met his kids’ mother. This time limitation was particularly evident in the final season of the show, which took place over just a single weekend.

Jason Segel Muppets

Jason Segel’s acts as Gary, Walter’s human brother and a fan of the Muppets. The Muppets is a 2011 American musical comedy film and the seventh theatrical film featuring the Muppets.
