Kevin James

What do a friendly delivery driver, a goofy dad, and a mall security guard have in common? They were all played by Kevin James — a comedian who turns everyday people into funny heroes.

Kevin James (born April 26, 1965) is an American actor and stand-up comedian from Mineola, New York. He became famous from the late 1990s into the 2000s. The single most important thing we'll focus on is his talent for turning ordinary people and everyday jobs into funny, lovable characters.

His biggest role was Doug Heffernan on the sitcom The King of Queens, a show that ran for many seasons and made him a household name. He also starred in family comedies like Paul Blart: Mall Cop and Grown Ups, using physical humor and a warm, goofy style that feels like your neighbor or uncle.

Kevin James's lasting idea is simple: everyday life can be funny and kind. He helped families laugh by making ordinary jobs and family moments into big, silly scenes. Today he still acts, does comedy, and makes movies that lots of people enjoy — so when you laugh at a clumsy but lovable character, you might be laughing with Kevin James.
