Jayne Eastwood is a Canadian entertainment icon whose career has spanned over five decades—and she’s still going strong, stealing scenes and hearts in everything from gritty drama to animated pups with badges. With more than 150 film, television, and animation credits to her name, Jayne is a true master of her craft and one of the most recognizable—and beloved—performers in the country. She got her first big break (and a permanent spot in Canadian film history) as Betty, the pregnant wife in the landmark 1970 film Goin’ Down the Road. From there, she just kept going. An original cast member of the Canadian production of Godspell at the Royal Alexandra Theatre, Jayne shared the stage with a who’s who of comedy legends: Martin Short, Andrea Martin, Gilda Radner, and Eugene Levy. Together, many of them went on to help found Second City Toronto, the legendary comedy institution. Jayne was a frequent and fearless presence on SCTV, often appearing alongside John Candy and Joe Flaherty, and has continued to move effortlessly between comedy and drama ever since. Comedy remains her magnetic north, which makes her a perfect fit as a member of Women Fully Clothed, the all-female comedy troupe that has toured North America and earned a Canadian Comedy Award nomination for Best Sketch Troupe. Her accolades are as legendary as her performances: the Earle Grey Award for Lifetime Achievement, ACTRA Toronto’s Award of Excellence, the Canadian Comedy Award’s Dave Broadfoot Award, and not one, not two, but three Canadian Screen Awards—for Paw Patrol (Best Animated Voice Performance), The Writers Block (Best Supporting Performance in a Web Series), and Sullivan’s Crossing (Best Guest Performance in a Drama, 2025). Jayne Eastwood is the definition of staying power. With impeccable timing, dramatic depth, and a laugh that could probably cure seasonal depression, she continues to bring truth, humour, and heart to every role she touches.
