Timeline
Christopher Daniel Lilley (born 10 November 1974) is an Australian comedian, actor, writer, musician, director, and producer.
In 2003, Lilley made his debut in Big Bite, a Seven Network comedy programme, in which he portrayed extreme sports enthusiast Extreme Darren and the high-school drama teacher Mr G, a character that he continued in Summer Heights High.
Big Bite was nominated for Best Television Comedy Series at the 2003 Australian Film Institute Awards, marking the first time a comedy programme from a commercial television network had ever been nominated at the Australian Film Institute Awards.
The producers co-credited Lilley; however, the show lasted only one series before being spun off into a comedy/variety programme.
Lilley was a recurring guest on the programme, but it was cancelled after only a few episodes.
Lilley appeared in the film satire Ned, based on the Australian outlaw Ned Kelly.
He appeared as the "MSN Butterfly" in a series of television advertisements and Cinema for MSN.
He has also appeared on the Hamish & Andy radio show.
He is known for his creation and portrayal of several fictional characters in the mockumentary television series We Can Be Heroes: Finding The Australian of the Year (2005), Summer Heights High (2007), Angry Boys (2011), Ja'mie: Private School Girl (2013), Jonah from Tonga (2014), and the web series Lunatics (2019).
He is a two-time winner of the Logie Award for Most Popular Actor.
He began his career in his twenties as a stand-up comedian while also working as a childcare worker at Turramurra North Public School and a shop assistant.
Lilley was nominated for Best Comedy Series and Best Lead Actor in Television at the 2006 Australian Film Institute Awards, and won the Best New Talent and Most Outstanding Comedy Program awards at the Logie Awards of 2006.
He also received a Rose d'Or award in Switzerland for Best Male Comedy Performance.
Following the series' success, it was sold to other countries under the new name The Nominees.
Lilley's second mockumentary series, Summer Heights High, aired on ABC TV in 2007.
In the series, Lilley played the series' three main characters at a public school: Ja'mie King, Mr G and Jonah Takalua.
Jonah had been introduced in Lilley's 2007 series Summer Heights High.
At the conclusion of that series, Jonah was expelled from Summer Heights High School.
In the new series, his father, Rocky Takalua, has sent him back to his homeland of Tonga to live with his uncle and their family in order to get Jonah's life back on track.
In March 2008, Lilley released a single, "Naughty Girl", based on the series, and performed in character as drama teacher Mr G.
At the 2008 Logie Awards he was nominated for four awards including Most Outstanding Actor and Gold Logie for Most Popular Personality on Television, and won the Silver Logie for Most Popular Actor and the Logie Award for Most Outstanding Comedy Program.
The series was sold to the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
Lilley embarked on a promotional tour of the United States in October 2008 to promote the U.S. broadcast of the series, which began airing on HBO on 9 November 2008.
The BBC began showing the programme on BBC Three in June 2008.
When asked whether there would be a second series, Lilley stated, "I never thought about it in the beginning because it was always a one-off thing. I'm not into just cashing in and rolling off into a second series that is not as good. I really enjoyed making the show, so the thought of writing and going back there again is really fun and exciting, but I haven't made a decision on what to do next."
Angry Boys, Lilley's third mockumentary series, aired on ABC in Australia and BBC in the UK in 2011, and HBO in the US in 2012.
The 12-part comedy series features six vastly different new characters played by Lilley.
The show introduces S.mouse!, a US rapper; Jen Okazaki, manipulative Japanese mother; Blake Oakfield, a champion surfer; Ruth "Gran" Sims, a guard at a juvenile detention facility; and her grandchildren, South Australian twins Daniel and Nathan Sims (who also featured in We Can Be Heroes).
Lilley won the inaugural AACTA Award in 2012 for Best Comedy Performance in Television for Angry Boys.
Ja'mie: Private School Girl, which aired in 2013, is a six-part half-hour comedy series.
It was produced by Melbourne-based production company Princess Pictures and Chris Lilley, and was a co-production between the ABC in Australia and HBO in the US.
It was pre-sold to BBC Three in the UK.
On 8 September 2013, Lilley revealed that the returning character to the series was Ja'mie King, from We Can Be Heroes and Summer Heights High; he also revealed the title of the show.
On 26 November 2013, Lilley confirmed that he would be reviving Jonah Takalua for a new show in 2014, titled Jonah From Tonga.
Lilley won the 2014 Silver Logie for Most Popular Actor for his performance in Ja'mie: Private School Girl.
In 2015, Lilley was the main actor for The Stafford Brothers, Rick Ross and Jay Sean's "When You Feel This" music video.
After the cancellation of Big Bite, Lilley created We Can Be Heroes: Finding The Australian of the Year, a six-part series on the ABC, in which he portrayed various characters nominated for the Australian of the Year Award.
The series was co-written with Ryan Shelton.
Lilley portrayed several characters in the series: Phil Olivetti, a self-obsessed police officer; Ricky Wong, a Chinese Australian university physics student from Melbourne; Pat Mullins, a 47-year-old housewife with a dream to roll on her side from Perth, Western Australia to Uluru, Northern Territory; Daniel Sims, a teenage boy who donates an eardrum to his deaf twin brother, Nathan (both Daniel and Nathan later appeared in "Angry Boys"); and Ja'mie King, a narcissistic girl attending a private high school in Sydney (Ja'mie later appeared in "Summer Heights High" and "Ja'mie: Private School Girl").
