Paul Reubens (August 27, 1952 – July 30, 2023) was an American actor, writer, film producer, game show host, and comedian, best known for his character Pee-wee Herman. Reubens joined the Los Angeles troupe The Groundlings in the 1970s and started his career as an improvisational comedian and stage actor. In 1982 he began appearing in a show about a character he had been developing for years. The show, called The Pee-wee Herman Show, ran for five sold-out months, and HBO produced a successful special about it. Pee-wee became an instant cult figure and, for the next decade, Reubens was completely committed to his character, doing all of his public appearances and interviews as Pee-wee. His feature film Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985), directed by the then-unknown Tim Burton, was a financial and critical success and soon developed into a cult film. Its sequel, Big Top Pee-wee (1988), was less successful. Between 1986 and 1990, Reubens starred as Pee-wee in the CBS Saturday-morning children's program Pee-wee's Playhouse. 폴 루벤스(1952년생, Peekskill, New York, USA) 는 배우로, 대표작으로 팀 버튼의 크리스마스 악몽, 마틸다, 루크 페리의 뱀파이어 해결사가 있으며, 그 외에도 지미 팰런의 투나잇 쇼, 아메리칸 대드!, 블랙리스트, 핀과 제이크의 어드벤처 타임, 조니 카슨의 투나잇 쇼, 밥스 버거스, Saturday Night Live, 코난, 지미 키멜 라이브!, 골든 글로브상, 고담, DC 레전드 오브 투모로우 등 다양한 작품에 출연했다.
