Jason Segel stars as Marshall, opposite Alyson Hannigan, Josh Radnor and Neil Patrick Harris, in the hit CBS comedy series "How I Met Your Mother," the story of a young man's struggle to find his true love. This series was also touted by Time magazine, hitting the list at No. 8 on the "Ten Best Shows of 2005."

Jason Segel also stars as Sydney Fife in "I Love You, Man" (2009), opposite Paul Rudd.

Jason Segel has the ability to consistently create memorable and hilarious characters, as he demonstrated in Judd Apatow's hit comedy "Knocked Up," as well as the Apatow-produced "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," which was written by Segel and based on his original idea. The film went on to make over $100 million worldwide and set Segel apart from most young Hollywood actors.

In 1999, Jason Segel portrayed Nick on "Freaks and Geeks," Apatow's Emmy-nominated television series for NBC. Jason Segel played a lanky, fun-loving freak dreaming of stardom as a rock-and-roll drummer, like his idol, John Bonham of Led Zeppelin. In 2000, Jason Segel had a recurring role as Eric on "Undeclared," the FOX series about college freshmen, which was named one of Time magazine's "Ten Best Shows of 2001."

Previous feature credits for Jason Segel include "Slackers," "Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny," "SLC Punk," "Can't Hardly Wait" and "Dead Man on Campus."

Born and raised in Los Angeles, Jason Segel continues to reside there.
