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&#8217;s debut special THE INTRUDER (HBO), which The New York Times called the &#8220;Best Debut Special of 2022&#8221; and Vulture and Variety named one of the &#8220;Best Specials of 2022.&#8221; Atsuko&#8217;s unique style of comedy &#8211; blending joy with vulnerability and unforgettable storytelling &#8211; is captivating audiences worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>Her 2024-2025 FULL GROWN tour was a massive success, selling out over 200 shows in more than 100 cities across 20+ countries. Atsuko&#8217;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&#8217;s her hilarious antics or her knack for being a trendsetter, Atsuko&#8217;s impact is undeniable and widespread.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of her stand-up career, Atsuko is taking over Hollywood with roles in two films that debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival &#8211; ALL THAT WE LOVE directed by Yen Tan and GROUP THERAPY directed by Neil Berkely, produced by Kevin Hart&#8217;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).<\/p>\n<p>Atsuko&#8217;s viral moments are as legendary as her stand-up. From riding a Jeepney in the Philippines to starting the #DropChallenge that helped bring Beyonc\u00e9&#8217;s &#8220;Partition&#8221; back onto the charts, she&#8217;s a true queen of the internet. Her fans have even shown up at her shows wearing wigs styled like her signature bowl cut &#8211; a testament to how deeply she connects with her audience.<\/p><div id=\"morty-3455656935\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Atsuko is racking up awards and accolades. She took home a Gracie Award for &#8220;Best Special&#8221; in 2023 for THE INTRUDER and was nominated for &#8220;Best Comedian&#8221; at the Wowie Awards. Variety named her one of the &#8220;10 Comics to Watch&#8221; in 2022, and Vulture crowned her late-night debut on The Late Late Show with James Corden as a win.<\/p>\n<p>On TV, she&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>Atsuko&#8217;s not just a comedy star &#8211; she&#8217;s a force of nature who&#8217;s teamed up with brands like Apple, Amazon Prime, Genesis, Priceline, Kind Bar, Secret Deodorant, and Kikori Whiskey.
