One of the highlights of Brittany Runs A Marathon is that Jillian Bell, the protagonist, is surrounded by a cast of young promises who are ready to make their leap to the big leagues and Lil Rel Howery is one of them!
Multi-faceted Howery is a comedian, actor, writer and producer. He gained great popularity in his role as Robert Carmichael in the NBC television comedy series The Carmichael Show (2015-2017).
He also stood out as the transport agent Rod Williams in the horror Oscar winner film Get Out (2017) and he also starred in the Rel television series, which he himself created and co-produced.
His special stand-up Relevent premiered at Comedy Central, whose executive production was in charge of himself and actor Kevin Hart. Vulture magazine named him among the “10 best stand-up specials of 2015” and once it appeared on Netflix, it became a must-see of the platform.
