Atsuko Okatsuka

Atsuko Okatsuka: Father will premiere on Friday, June 13 on Hulu, and is the eighth Original special in Hulu's new stand-up comedy slate, Hularious. Fans call her 'Mother,' but Atsuko is 'Father'—thriving professionally yet clueless about basics. A 7-year laundry hiatus and learning that marriage licenses precede weddings are just some hilariously relatable discoveries she shares in her special.

Atsuko Okatsuka is a comedian and actress making waves across the globe with her one-of-a-kind humor, boundless energy, and infectious charm. The Hulu special follows the massive success of Atsuko's debut special The Intruder (HBO), which The New York Times called the "Best Debut Special of 2022" and Vulture and Variety named one of the "Best Specials of 2022." Atsuko's unique style of comedy — blending joy with vulnerability and unforgettable storytelling — is captivating audiences worldwide.
