For decades, the Wayans family has reigned supreme in comedy, building a legacy on fearless creativity. Join WPP’s Global Chief Creative Officer Rob Reilly for a candid conversation with the iconic Marlon Wayans, as the pair discuss the power of Black ownership, the resurgence of humor in the advertising world, and the lessons brands can learn from a family that built an empire on laughter.
