Almost Famous? edit
Almost Famous was directed by Cameron Crowe, not Jon Favreau.
Updated picture edit
Since Swingers was released ten years ago and Favreau looks much different now, I took the liberty of updating his picture.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hypermagic (talk • contribs) 18:46, 27 June 2006.
No Friends? edit
No mention of his work in Friends? I would call that his break-out role, really. He probably got more publicity and acclaim for that than any of his films by that point.
Birthday edit
I forgot to login when I did it, but I fixed the birthday on the infobox to show the day he was born, not the 1927 date that was there. I really doubt he waited 40 or so years before graduating college with no prior history.Atomic1fire (talk) 22:35, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
The other Jon Favreau edit
Is there no article for Jon Favreau, Barack Obama's speechwriter? Simphilip (talk) 20:04, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- There is now (since April, at least). Jon Favreau (speechwriter). —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 22:45, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- Why does "Jon Favreau" default to the actor guy? Is that decision based on the number of times someone accesses his page? Why not a disambiguation page? 98.248.180.183 (talk) 22:42, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
Executive Producer Credits edit
Shouldn't his work as a producer, especially executive producer, be credited as well? I know it's been officially confirmed that he's the executive producer for the 2011 movie The Avengers. Mrobviousjosh (talk) 09:41, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Go for it --SV Resolution(Talk) 15:27, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
Magic Kingdom edit
Heres a ref for this project;

Middle Name edit
This is more than enough proof that Kolia's his middle name.

Actor-Director Section Needs Cleaning edit
The actor-director section is pretty messy. There's no clear flow, either chronologically or by project. It's just a painful mess to read. I don't have time to work on it at the moment, but I'll take a whack at it later if someone doesn't beat me to it.DenJansen (talk) 22:06, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
TV pilot edit
this article says he is shooting a pilot in SF.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:18, 29 March 2013 (UTC) He has also directed the first episode of Seth McFarland's The Orville.
Separate tables for acting, writing and producing credits edit
Instead of having all the credits in one giant table, is anyone opposed to separating them and having a table for each thing, of course some titles would be repeated but I find it easier because he didn't start writing or directing until later so the acting credits should be on their own.

What is the crap in the first paragraph> edit
Has this been trashed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.211.12.99 (talk) 05:08, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
First Paragraph edit
The First paragraph has sentences which are out of context.Do take out those sentences. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.93.74.43 (talk) 05:46, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Babish edit
Do you think that Favreau appearing on Binging with Babish is notable enough to put in this page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dobekofcas (talk • contribs) 15:00, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
Friends edit
Why isn’t his role as Pete Becker on Friends mentioned? That was a major show! 108.31.194.185 (talk) 18:35, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
- See Jon Favreau filmography, it is listed there. Not every role needs to be in prose, list/table mentioning is adequate.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 20:42, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
