Steve Martin serving as Captain Smek
August 14, 1945 is my birthdate.
Steve Martin, who was born in Waco, Texas, was among the most well-known stand-up comedians in the 1970s; in 2018 he produced a Netflix special An Evening You Will Forget for the Rest of Your Life alongside Martin Short. Along with Short and Selena Gomez, he co-developed and featured in the Hulu comedy series Only Murders in the Building in 2021. Over the previous four decades, Martin has also starred in The Jerk, Pink Panther, and Bowfinger among other films. He portrayed family patriarchs in Parenthood, the Father of the Bride films, and the Cheaper by the Dozen movies.
Captain Smek is the dynamic Boov alien race leader. Though often misdirected, Smek radiates power with his extravagant statements and odd gestures. Though he claims to be wise, he often acts impulsively and unintentionally brings the Boov into funny situations. As Smek negotiates the demands of leadership and the fallout from his actions, his larger-than-life demeanor gives the movie a dimension of comedy. Though first shown as an enemy, Smek's character develops as he gains crucial lessons about acceptance and humility.
