Rising star Marsai Martin, at just 17-years-old, is already on course to be a whirlwind sensation. At the age of five she landed her first national commercial and shortly after relocating to Los Angeles, she was cast as Diane Johnson on the ABC Emmy-nominated hit comedy Black-ish (2014). Alongside an all-star cast, the young starlet has stolen the hearts of viewers who tune in every week to see her hilarious and witty antics on the show. Her work on the show has earned her 9 NAACP Image Awards and 3 BET Awards. At the age of 10 she conceptualized and pitched a movie idea to Will Packer and Universal which became the feature film, Little (2019), which also earned her 2 more NAACP Image Awards. As the star and Executive Producer on the film, she has become a part of Hollywood history as the youngest person to EP a major Hollywood film. With opportunities presenting themselves daily, Marsai’s excited about uplifting diverse and young voices through her production company, Genius Productions, who signed an overall deal with Universal. Genius Entertainment has expanded across all platforms including television, digital and live activations. This past year announced projects include an interior design series for Discovery + called Remix My Space with Marsai Martin (2022) and a feature for Paramount+ partnered with The SpringHill Co and Awesomeness called Fantasy Football (2022). She recently served as an Executive Producer for Girls Inc Virtual Film Festival and co-created and produced a Gen Z financial literacy series for Verizon Media's "In The Know" called Money with Marsai Martin. Most recently you can see Marsai in the Universal/Dreamworks Animation Spirit Untamed (2021), as well as Paramount’s feature film PAW Patrol: The Movie (2021).
