Early life
On February 9, 1976, Charles Peckham Day was born in New York City. His family lived in the Riverdale section of the Bronx. He spent the bulk of his childhood in Middletown, Rhode Island. He is the youngest of two children in the United Kingdom, with Alice as his elder sister. Dr. Thomas Day, a father of Italian and Irish descent, is a retired professor of music history at Salve Regina University in Newport, Rhode Island, and his mother, Mary (née Peckham), was a piano instructor at The Pennfield School in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. She was of English descent. His paternal grandfather converted the family name from "Del Giorno" to "Day" during WWII and died in a military training crash when his son Thomas was only four years old.
Day attended Pennfield School and graduated from the Portsmouth Abbey School, both in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. In 1998, he majored in art history at Merrimack College in North Andover, Massachusetts. He was very active in the Onstagers, Merrimack's student theater company, when he was at Merrimack. Day delivered the commencement address for Merrimack College's graduating class in May 2014 and was given an honorary Ph.D.
Day spent time on small television shows, ads, and voiceovers for the Independent Film Channel, and supplemented his income by waiting tables and answering phones for a telethon.

Career
Beginning in summer 1997 as a college student, Day was active in the training programs at the Williamstown Theatre Festival, where he was a contemporary of actors such as Jimmi Simpson, David Hornsby, Kathryn Hahn and Sterling K. Brown. Day went on to play the lead role in Dead End, at the Huntington Theatre in Boston. In the early 2000s, he appeared on several television shows such as Third Watch, Law & Order, Reno 911! and the cancelled sitcom Luis.
As a young actor living in New York City, Day had lived with Simpson, and the two had often made comedy sketches and absurd short films with Hornsby, Nate Mooney, Logan Marshall-Green and other actor friends. These served as the inspiration for several scripted home movies he later developed with Rob McElhenney and Glenn Howerton in 2003, including a few about three struggling actors getting into schemes and awkward situations in their spare time while living in LA. The scripts evolved and went on to become the pilot episode of the comedy series It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. In 2005, the first season was released on FX television. In addition to being a co-creator, executive producer and writer on the show, Day plays Charlie Kelly, one of the main characters on the show. In 2021, It's Always Sunny became the longest running live action comedy on American television with the release of its fifteenth season.
In July 2011, Day starred in New Line Cinema's Horrible Bosses with Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell, and Jamie Foxx. The film was a commercial success and Day's performance was praised by critics. He also had a role in the 2010 film Going the Distance, alongside Justin Long, Jason Sudeikis, and Drew Barrymore. In 2013, he voiced the character Art in the Pixar animated film Monsters University and appeared in the Guillermo del Toro science fiction kaiju film Pacific Rim, in which he played biologist Dr Newton "Newt" Geiszler, who is the focus of the secondary comedic plot with Burn Gorman and Ron Perlman. In 2018, he reprised the role for the sequel Pacific Rim: Uprising directed by Steven S. DeKnight.
In 2017, Day starred in Fist Fight, with Ice Cube. In it, Day plays Andy Campbell, a high school English teacher challenged by his co-worker, history teacher Ronald Strickland (Cube), to a fight after getting him fired. In 2018, he had a role in Drew Pearce's film Hotel Artemis, with Jodie Foster, Sterling K Brown, Brian Tyree Henry and Jenny Slate.
Most recently, Day played his first leading role in a romantic comedy on I Want You Back with Slate for Amazon Studios released on 11 February 2022.
Day also produced the television shows How to Be a Gentleman and Unsupervised, created by It's Always Sunny writers David Hornsby, Scott Marder and Rob Rosell. Day hosted the November 5, 2011 episode of Saturday Night Live (SNL) with Maroon 5 as the musical guest. He was the second cast member from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia to host SNL (after Danny DeVito, though DeVito hosted SNL before It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia premiered, the last time being in 1999; notably, however, DeVito would make a brief cameo during Day's opening monologue in this episode). Day would also make another brief cameo in the following season's episode hosted by Jamie Foxx on December 8, 2012, as a congressman in the episode's sketch "Maine Justice". In September 2014, Day provided his voice for The Sims 4 TV spots.
He is the creator and producer of Fox comedy The Cool Kids, starring Vicki Lawrence, Martin Mull, David Alan Grier and Leslie Jordan and set in a retirement community. On August 9, 2019, Mythic Quest, a new half-hour comedy series co-created by Day and, colleagues from It's Always Sunny, Rob McElhenney and Megan Ganz, was announced as one of the original productions for the then-upcoming streaming service, Apple TV+.
In September 2021, Nintendo announced that Day will be voicing Luigi, in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, set to be released on April 7, 2023. Day is currently also working on his feature directorial debut with the upcoming comedy El Tonto, featuring Kate Beckinsale, Edie Falco and John Malkovich. Day writes, produces, and stars as a silent man who becomes a celebrity and loses it all.
Since November 2021, Day, McElhenney and Howerton have been releasing The Always Sunny Podcast, originally intending on re-watching the entire series and sharing behind-the-scenes information, before the focus of the podcast naturally shifted to emphasize the banter and dynamic between the three creators.
