David Arquette has been a household name in Hollywood for over 30 years. The youngest of the Arquette acting dynasty (stretching all the way back to his great-grandparents), David recently reprised his role as Dewey Riley in the relaunch of Scream, which had a #1 opening weekend. David is also known for modern classics like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Airheads, Johns, Never Been Kissed, Ready to Rumble, and 3000 Miles to Graceland.
David recently joined the cast of Peacock’s Mrs. Davis, a drama series written and Executive Produced by Tara Hernandez and Damon Lindelof. He was also recently seen in the thriller Spree opposite Joe Keery from Stranger Things and Mope, directed by Lucas Heyne. David will also be seen in The Storied Life OF A.J. Fikry, opposite Kunal Nayyar, Lucy Hale, Christina Hendricks, and Scott Foley.
David has also produced successful TV series like Cougar Town and Celebrity Name. Arquette is an investor in XTR, the leading premium nonfiction film and television studio in America, which has produced the critically acclaimed feature documentary on himself called You Cannot Kill David Arquette, which follows Arquette as he attempts a rocky return to the sport that stalled his promising Hollywood career. Dangerously determined to redeem his reputation and reclaim his self-respect, Arquette stopped at nothing to earn his place in professional wrestling. With XTR, David also produced docu-series They Call Me Magic, the real story of Magic “Earvin” Johnson.
Arquette is also co-owner of the L.A. nightlife staple Bootsy Bellows alongside H. Wood Group’s John Terzian and Brian Toll.
