Early life

Gianmarco Soresi

Career

Stand-up comedy

After completing college, Soresi moved to New York to pursue comedy and acting full-time. He began performing stand-up comedy in 2016. In 2020, he released his first half-hour of material, Shelf Life. Soresi also performed as a part of the "New Faces" showcase at the 2022 Just for Laughs festival in Montreal.

Soresi made his late-night debut on The Late Late Show with James Corden on November 23, 2022. Reviewing Soresi's 2023 appearance on Netflix's Verified Stand-Up, Jason Sinoman for The New York Times wrote that Soresi "alternates between silkily feline physicality and frenetic gesticulation." Soresi also performed sets for Don't Tell Comedy and on Comedy Central, winning Season 8 of Amazon’s Comics Watching Comics. Soresi appeared in an episode of the comedy panel game show Game Changer alongside comedians Jeff Arcuri and Josh Johnson. The episode was spun-off into a comedy game-show called Crowd Control, and Soresi appeared in its first season.

He released his first full-length comedy special Thief of Joy on YouTube on September 19, 2025, the same week that he performed a stand-up set on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. That same year, Soresi debuted his tour The Drama King and performed at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe. At the end of 2025, Deadline named him one of the "Comics Who Won 2025".
