Jay Mewes

MEWES
Perhaps best known as “Jay”, the foul-mouthed foil to hetero-lifemate “Silent Bob” in Kevin
Smith’s View Askewnivere, Jason Mewes has blossomed into a full-blown pop culture icon
since his debut in 1994’s CLERKS! His character would become a sort of James Bond of the
mid-90’s low budget film – a fast talking, over-sexed, but ultimately harmless and likeable guy.
With cult-fans following his controversial antics, Mewes has captured audiences with his
rebellious banter against his unspoken other half and longtime friend, Kevin Smith (Silent Bob).
Since the beginning of the duo’s offbeat work together, Mewes and Smith have continued to
build on their beloved character driven roles from the Jay and Silent Bob series. The duo
returned in 2019, along with a star-studded cast in JAY AND SILENT BOB REBOOT. In 2022,
the pair took up the mantle of this toking twosome once more in Kevin Smith’s CLERKS III.
Outside of his work with Smith, Mewes has popped up in flicks like THE LAST GODFATHER
with Harvey Keitel and TV shows like SUPERGIRL and THE FLASH! He’s even moved behind
the camera with his directorial debut, MADNESS IN THE METHOD featuring a cavalcade of
celebrities including the one and only Stan Lee! You can also find Jay streaming his virtual video
gaming escapades on Twitch, appearing alongside Kevin Smith in the live podcast Jay and Silent
Bob Get Old, and telling the tumultuous tales of his absurdly unique life in his solo show “Jay
Mewes and his A-Mewes-ing Stories.”
