The Golden Trailer Awards, the prestigious event honoring marketing executives and companies that create movie trailers, commercials and posters worldwide, will be hosted by James Murray, best known as Murr from TBS’s “Impractical Jokers.” The event will be held Thursday, May 29, at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Los Angeles.

A comedian, writer and producer, Murr worked as the senior vice president of development for NorthSouth Productions for nearly a decade before rocketing to comedy fame on “Impractical Jokers.” He is now the owner of Impractical Studios. Murr is also an international bestselling author, whose works include the sci-fi horror “Awakened” trilogy, the suspense thrillers “You Better Watch Out,” “Don’t Move” and “The Stowaway,” and the middle-grade series “Area 51 Interns.” His horror movie “Don’t Move” hits theaters soon.

“Murr’s comedy is a perfect match for the most fun awards ceremony on the calendar,” said Evelyn Brady, Golden Trailer Awards executive director.
