Reubens started his career as a comedian in the 1970s. In 1980 he played the character Pee-wee Herman for the first time in the theater, later several films and series were made for children.
In 1991 he was arrested at a porn cinema, which led to a lot of negative media attention. Reubens then decided to stop playing Pee-wee. In the years that followed, however, the character appeared more and more in public and after a long hiatus, the Netflix movie “Pee-wee’s Big Holiday” was released in 2016.
The actor also had smaller roles in the series “Reno 911!”, “30 Rock” and “The Blacklist”.
