If you’re a fan of WWE Superstar The Big Show, you’ll absolutely want to push play on the big man’s new Netflix family comedy The Big Show Show.
Premiering on Netflix on Monday, April 6, the new sitcom follows Paul “Big Show” Wight as he battles his toughest opponent to date: his family! When his teenage daughter Lola (Reylynn Caster) comes to live with him and his wife (Allison Munn) and the couple’s two other daughters, the recently retired Big Show quickly becomes outnumbered as he tries to rein in the chaos.
To borrow a phrase from the Big Show’s legendary WWE theme song, “get ready for something that you’ve never known. You wont see it coming, but I promise you’ll know: It’s The Big Show (Show).”
Here’s everything you need to know about the cast of Netflix’s The Big Show Show.
HOW TALL IS THE BIG SHOW?
Paul “Big Show” Wight is reportedly a legitimate seven-footer with the WWE listing the giant as seven feet tall.
WHO PLAYS THE BIG SHOW’S WIFE?
Cassy is portrayed by actress Allison Munn.
WHERE HAVE I SEEN ALLISON MUNN BEFORE?
You may know Allison Munn as Cassy, but to me, the actress will always be Lauren Fletcher on One Tree Hill. If you’re not a fan of One Tree Hill (rude!), you might recognize Munn as Caroline Dupree from That ’70s Show, Tina Haven from What I Like About You, or as Anne Harper from the Nickelodeon comedy Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn.
The actress has also appeared in Peter Kosminsky’s 2002 drama White Oleander, Cameron Crowe’s Elizabethtown, and Nickelodeon’s Sizzling Summer Camp Special.
Fun fact: Allison Munn used to be involved in roller derby. Munn (a.k.a. Kiss M’Grits) played for the L.A. Derby Dolls during the writers’ strike of 2008. If you’re a fan of Munn’s work, you can follow the actress on Instagram and/or binge all 187 episodes of One Tree Hill.
WHO’S IN THE BIG SHOW’S FAMILY? WHO PORTRAYS THE BIG SHOW’S KIDS?
Big Show’s daughters are portrayed by Reylynn Caster (Lola), Lily Brooks O’Briant (Mandy), and Juliet Donenfeld (J.J.).
Reylynn Caster (Lola):
Caster is best known as Brie Witherspoon on the ABC comedy American Housewife. Reylynn also played Nori Sterling on the CBS sitcom Me, Myself and I and is an accomplished theatrical performer, appearing in productions of Big River, The Music Man, Aladdin, Pippin, Sleeping Beauty, and Willie Wonka.
Lily Brooks O’Briant (Mandy):
O’Briant is best known for playing Carly Gray in the 2015 Dolph Lundren action film Shark Lake. You may also recognize the young actress as Young Dot from Amazon’s The Tick.
Juliet Donenfeld (J.J.):
Wanna feel old? Juliet Donenfeld already has 17 credits to her name! The pint-sized scene stealer is best known for playing Mike Ehrmantraut’s granddaughter Kaylee on Better Call Saul and Thalia in the Netflix film The Laundromat.
WHO PLAYS TAYLOR SWIFT ON THE BIG SHOW SHOW?
The man with the famous name is portrayed by actor Dallas Young (credited as Dallas Dupree Young).
WHERE HAVE I SEEN DALLAS YOUNG (OR DALLAS DUPREE YOUNG) BEFORE?
Young played Young Uzo on NBC’s The Good Place, Corey on the Freeform series The Fosters, and “Elementary Kid” in Steven Spielberg’s Ready Player One.
Interestingly enough, this isn’t Young’s only wrestling-related comedy of the year. The burgeoning star will also appear in the upcoming Netflix film The Main Event.
