Launched in 1987, Street Fighter is a series of fighting games revolving around intense one-on-one battles between a diverse cast of martial artists. The games often center around a global fighting tournament organized by M. Bison, the leader of the evil organization Shadaloo. Street Fighter has sold over 55 million units worldwide since launch, making it one of the most well-known and highest-grossing video game franchises of all time.
Schulz has had himself quite the year outside stand-up starting with his podcast, Flagrant Pod, which ranks as one of the top comedy podcasts and was recently profiled by the New York Times for the major political guests recently featured on the show.
He can also be seen on the latest season of Netflix’s Tires starring Shane Gillis, and recently dropped his latest Netflix special Andrew Schulz: Life on the streamer.
While this marks one of his largest film roles to date, his past credits include White Men Can’t Jump and The Underdoggs. He is repped by CAA.
