Jon Favreau is an American actor, filmmaker, writer and producer whose career has stretched across independent comedies, major Hollywood productions and some of the biggest franchises in modern cinema. He first attracted wider attention as an actor and writer with Swingers in 1996, after making smaller appearances in films such as Rudy and PCU. Favreau later became an important filmmaker in his own right, directing movies including Elf, Zathura: A Space Adventure, Iron Man, Iron Man 2, The Jungle Book and The Lion King. His portrayal of Happy Hogan also made him a recurring presence in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, while his voice work has included animated characters in G-Force, Zookeeper and Solo: A Star Wars Story. This complete guide to Jon Favreau movies by year covers his released feature-film appearances as well as major feature films he directed, clearly identifying voice roles and non-acting filmmaking credits.
1992 — Folks!
Folks! was one of Jon Favreau’s earliest film appearances, arriving in 1992 as a comedy directed by Ted Kotcheff and starring Tom Selleck and Don Ameche. Favreau played a Chicago taxi driver in a small supporting role. The movie follows a successful businessman whose elderly father suddenly creates a series of complications in his carefully controlled life. Although Favreau’s part was brief, the film represents an early step in his professional movie career.
1992 — Hoffa
Favreau also appeared in Hoffa, Danny DeVito’s 1992 biographical crime drama about powerful American labor leader Jimmy Hoffa. He was credited as an extra, making this another very small early screen appearance. The film starred Jack Nicholson as Hoffa alongside DeVito, Armand Assante and J. T. Walsh. While Favreau did not have a substantial character, Hoffa is notable as an early entry in his filmography.
1993 — Rudy
In 1993, Favreau landed a more recognizable supporting role in Rudy, the inspirational sports drama directed by David Anspaugh. He played D-Bob, Rudy Ruettiger’s older brother, who helps encourage him to pursue his dream of playing football at the University of Notre Dame. Sean Astin starred as Rudy, with Charles S. Dutton, Ned Beatty and John Beasley also appearing. The film became one of the better-known sports dramas of the 1990s and gave Favreau an early opportunity to demonstrate his ability in a substantial supporting role.
1994 — PCU
PCU was a 1994 college comedy directed by Hart Bochner and starring Jeremy Piven, Chris Young and Megan Ward. Favreau played Gutter, a student associated with the fictional Port Chester University campus. The movie satirizes political correctness, campus activism and college culture through a group of unconventional students. Although it received mixed reviews on release, PCU later developed a cult following and remains an interesting early entry among Jon Favreau movies by year.
1994 — Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle
Favreau appeared as playwright Elmer Rice in Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle, Alan Rudolph’s 1994 period drama about writer Dorothy Parker and the literary figures surrounding the Algonquin Round Table. The film featured an ensemble cast led by Jennifer Jason Leigh, with Campbell Scott, Matthew Broderick and Robert Benchley also among the cast. Favreau’s appearance was part of a large supporting ensemble portraying real figures from the literary world. The film is notable for its stylized recreation of New York’s 1920s literary scene.
1994 — Speechless
In Speechless, a 1994 romantic comedy directed by Ron Underwood, Favreau had a small, uncredited role as a debate control room operator. The film starred Michael Keaton and Geena Davis as rival political speechwriters who become romantically involved. Its political comedy combines romance with the behind-the-scenes world of election campaigns. Favreau’s contribution was minor, but the film belongs among his officially released early movie appearances.
1995 — Batman Forever

Favreau appeared in Batman Forever, the 1995 superhero film directed by Joel Schumacher. He played an assistant in the large ensemble surrounding Val Kilmer’s Batman, Jim Carrey’s Riddler and Tommy Lee Jones’s Two-Face. The movie continued the Warner Bros. Batman franchise after Tim Burton’s first two films and introduced a brighter, more colorful visual style. Favreau’s brief appearance predates the superhero filmmaking work that would eventually become one of the defining parts of his career.
1996 — Swingers
Swingers was the breakthrough movie that helped establish Favreau as a significant creative voice in independent cinema. Directed by Doug Liman and written by Favreau, the comedy stars Favreau as Mike Peters, a struggling actor trying to recover from a breakup while navigating Los Angeles nightlife with his friends. Vince Vaughn, Ron Livingston, Patrick Van Horn and Heather Graham also star. The film became a defining late-1990s independent comedy and helped launch both Favreau’s acting career and Vaughn’s rise to stardom.
1996 — Persons Unknown
George Hickenlooper directed Persons Unknown, a 1996 action thriller starring Joe Mantegna, Kelly Lynch and Naomi Watts. Favreau played Terry, a supporting character caught up in the film’s complicated criminal plot involving a former police officer and a dangerous robbery. The movie has a darker tone than many of Favreau’s better-known comedies. Its release expanded his filmography into crime and thriller territory.
1996 — Just Your Luck
Just Your Luck was a 1996 comedy-drama released directly to video in the United States. Directed by Gary Auerbach, the film follows a group of people competing for a lottery fortune after the winner dies unexpectedly. Favreau played Straker in a cast that also included Sean Patrick Flanery, Virginia Madsen, Ernie Hudson and Vince Vaughn. It is a less widely known title in Favreau’s filmography, but it was an officially released feature and therefore belongs in a complete list of his movie appearances.
1997 — Dogtown
Favreau appeared in Dogtown, George Hickenlooper’s 1997 drama about a failed Hollywood actor who returns to his hometown. He played Ezra Good, a troubled and racist local bully involved in the life of Dorothy Sternen, played by Mary Stuart Masterson. Trevor St. John, Rory Cochrane, Natasha Gregson Wagner and Harold Russell were also part of the cast. The independent drama gave Favreau a more serious and morally difficult character than many of his early comedy roles.
1998 — Deep Impact
Deep Impact was a major 1998 disaster film directed by Mimi Leder and built around the threat of a comet heading toward Earth. Favreau played Dr. Gus Partenza, a scientist involved in the effort to understand and respond to the approaching catastrophe. Robert Duvall, Téa Leoni, Elijah Wood and Morgan Freeman led the ensemble cast. The movie was one of Hollywood’s major disaster releases of the late 1990s and gave Favreau a role in a large-scale studio production.
1998 — Very Bad Things
In Very Bad Things, Favreau played Kyle Fisher, one of several friends whose bachelor-party trip spirals into a deadly cover-up. Peter Berg directed the dark comedy, which also starred Christian Slater, Cameron Diaz, Jeremy Piven and Daniel Stern. The film mixes outrageous humor with increasingly disturbing violence as the characters attempt to conceal what happened. Favreau’s lead performance demonstrated his ability to carry a darker comedy rather than simply playing a supporting character.
1999 — Rocky Marciano — Television Film
Rocky Marciano was a 1999 biographical television film rather than a conventional theatrical feature. Favreau played legendary heavyweight boxer Rocky Marciano, taking the lead role in the biographical story. The project is notable because it gave him the unusual challenge of portraying a real sports figure in a dramatic production. Because it was made for television, it is identified separately here rather than being counted as a standard feature film.
2000 — Love & Sex
Favreau starred as Adam Levy in Love & Sex, a 2000 romantic comedy directed by Valerie Breiman. The movie follows a writer whose experiences with relationships and dating become the subject of her work, with Famke Janssen leading the cast alongside Favreau.

The Replacements was a 2000 sports comedy directed by Howard Deutch and led by Keanu Reeves and Gene Hackman. Favreau played Daniel “Danny” Bateman, a former professional football player recruited as one of the replacement athletes during a players’ strike.

2001 — Made
Favreau reunited with Vince Vaughn for Made, a 2001 crime comedy that marked his feature directorial debut. He directed the film, co-wrote it and starred as Bobby Ricigliano, a boxer-turned-criminal who gets drawn into a complicated scheme with his friend Ricky, played by Vaughn. Peter Falk and Sean Combs were also part of the cast. Made is especially important in Jon Favreau movies by year because it marked the beginning of his transition from actor and screenwriter into a prominent Hollywood director.
2002 — The First $20 Million Is Always the Hardest — Screenwriter
Favreau did not have a credited acting role in The First $20 Million Is Always the Hardest, but he was one of the film’s screenwriters. Directed by Mick Jackson, the comedy stars Adam Garcia, Rosario Dawson and Jake Busey and follows a group trying to create an inexpensive computer. Favreau co-wrote the screenplay with Gary Tieche, adapting Po Bronson’s novel. Since this is a feature-film writing credit rather than an acting appearance, it is identified separately.
2003 — Daredevil
Favreau played Franklin “Foggy” Nelson in Daredevil, the 2003 superhero film directed by Mark Steven Johnson. Ben Affleck starred as Matt Murdock, with Jennifer Garner as Elektra and Michael Clarke Duncan as Wilson Fisk. Foggy is Matt’s best friend and law partner, providing comic relief as well as an important connection to Matt’s civilian life. Favreau’s performance became one of his most recognizable pre-Marvel Cinematic Universe supporting roles, and his later work with Marvel would eventually bring him back into superhero films in a different capacity.
2003 — The Big Empty
In The Big Empty, Favreau played John Person, an unsuccessful actor who becomes entangled in a mysterious assignment after agreeing to deliver a suitcase. Steven Anderson directed the offbeat 2003 comedy-drama, which blends crime, mystery and surreal elements. Daryl Hannah, Kelsey Grammer and Rachel Leigh Cook were also featured.

2004 — Wimbledon

Favreau appeared as Johnny O in The Break-Up, the 2006 romantic comedy directed by Peyton Reed. Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston star as a couple whose relationship collapses while neither wants to leave their shared apartment.

2008 — Open Season 2 — Voice/Uncredited Role
Open Season 2 was a 2008 direct-to-video animated sequel, and Favreau was associated with the film as Reilly in an uncredited voice capacity. The story returns to the animated wilderness characters introduced in the first Open Season. Because it was released directly to home video rather than as a theatrical feature, it is best identified separately from Favreau’s theatrical film appearances. His participation nevertheless forms part of the broader released movie record.
2009 — I Love You, Man
Favreau played Barry in I Love You, Man, a 2009 comedy directed by John Hamburg.

Jon Favreau’s Movie Career in Perspective
Jon Favreau’s film career is unusual because his success as an actor eventually developed into an equally important career behind the camera. His early appearances in films such as Rudy, PCU, Swingers and Very Bad Things established him as a recognizable character actor, while Made demonstrated that he could successfully write, direct and star in a feature. His work on Elf and Zathura then led to much larger studio opportunities.
The biggest transformation came with Iron Man in 2008. By directing and appearing as Happy Hogan, Favreau became part of the foundation of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a relationship that continued through numerous later Marvel movies. At the same time, he maintained a voice-acting career and directed ambitious visual-effects projects such as The Jungle Book and The Lion King. More recently, his work on Star Wars has expanded his filmmaking influence beyond Marvel.
Across the years, Jon Favreau movies by year show the progression of a performer who moved from small supporting parts to leading roles, screenwriting, directing and major franchise filmmaking. From Swingers and Made to Iron Man, Chef, The Jungle Book, The Lion King and The Mandalorian and Grogu, his movie career reflects a rare ability to work successfully both in front of and behind the camera.
