Joshua Banday
Actor, improviser, and musician Josh Banday brings characters to life drawing inspiration from his Black, Latinx, Filipino, and Jewish makeup and experience navigating the complexities of growing up LGBTQ+ in Los Angeles’ Catholic Schools.
You might know Josh Banday as the enigmatic Ivan from Amazon's "Upload," or as the neurotic Dennis in ABC's "Not Dead Yet." However, his roles as Bigfoot's Dad in Apple TV+'s children's series "The Slumberkins" and as Marcus on Netflix’s “Barbie Mysteries: The Great Horse Chase” showcase his voiceover versatility (and Ukulele skills). Whether he's breathing life into animated characters or adding flavor to commercials, Josh brings a unique blend of warmth and humor to every project.
Josh has cut his comedy and drama chops from the halls of The Second City and The Groundlings Sunday Company, to the musical theatre stage, to The Kingsmen Shakespeare Summer Stock. This diverse training ground shaped Josh into a versatile artist, equally at home with modern comedy, Shakespearean soliloquies, and belting out Putnam County Spelling Bee in front of packed 99 seat theaters.
What's Next?
Stay tuned! Josh Banday is returning to "Upload" for its upcoming season on Amazon, and some exciting roles in the video game sphere.
