Pee-wee Herman was a character so beloved that people often confused him with his creator/portrayer, the late Paul Reubens (1952-2023). Pee-Wee is an exuberant childlike persona who can be selfish and bratty, but is unafraid of being bold and encountering the odd and the weird. Reubens first developed Pee-Wee when he was part of the Groundlings improvisational troupe in the 1970s, then centered a stage show around the character. In 1985, he wrote and starred in the feature film PEE-WEE’S BIG ADVENTURE, which gave a major launch to not only Reubens’s career, but that of the movie’s director, Tim Burton. […]Read On »

In screenwriting lore, there is a character often referred to as “Morris the Explainer.” This is the person who shows up in the story to deliver the exposition that there’s just no other way of providing to either the other characters or the audience.

Played by Peter Jacobson, he’s the one who relates the workings of a malevolent supernatural entity to troubled pop star Skye Riley (Naomi Scott).
