Robert Leo Farrelly Jr. (born June 17, 1958) is an American film director, screenwriter and producer. He is one of the Farrelly brothers , alongside his brother Peter , and together are known for directing and producing quirky, slightly offensive comedy films such as Dumb and Dumber , Shallow Hal , Me, Myself and Irene , There's Something About Mary , and the 2007 remake of The Heartbreak Kid . He made his solo directorial debut in 2023 with Champions .
Life and career [ edit ]
Farrelly was raised in Cumberland, Rhode Island , to Mariann, a nurse practitioner, and Dr. Robert Leo Farrelly.[1] His grandparents were Irish immigrants, and he also has Polish ancestry.[2] [3] He is a graduate of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute , where he entered the school on a hockey scholarship.[4]
Bobby and his brother Peter Farrelly are known as the Farrelly brothers . They have written, directed and produced several comedy films including Dumb and Dumber , There's Something About Mary , Kingpin , Shallow Hal , Me, Myself & Irene and Stuck on You , as well as Fever Pitch , and The Lost Son of Havana . They conceived the Seinfeld episode "The Virgin " (4.10)
In 2014, Bobby and Peter directed Dumb and Dumber To , the sequel to Dumb and Dumber . In 2016, Bobby directed two episodes of Season 10 of the Canadian cult mockumentary TV series Trailer Park Boys .
In 2020, Bobby and Peter directed the Quibi comedy series The Now .[5]
In 2023, he made his solo directorial debut with the sports comedy-drama film Champions . Woody Harrelson , the feature actor of the film who worked on Kingpin with Farrelly in 1996, personally picked Farrelly to direct the film, saying "He’s a deep person and he’s got the most amazing sense of humor". Just like the original Campeones (2018) film, Champions was filmed with actors with intellectual disabilities.[6]
Personal life [ edit ]
Farrelly has been married to his wife Nancy since 1990; they have two sons and a daughter.
