Former MTV comedian Tom Green planning ‘major comeback’ in 2025

Comic Tom Green — who had a hit show on MTV in 1999, and a whirlwind marriage to Drew Barrymore — is making a full-blown comeback with a number of upcoming projects and a country music album.

A source tells us that Green will drop a documentary, a comedy special and a four-part docuseries — all within days of each other this January, exclusively on Amazon.

We hear the doc will chronicle the “Freddie Got Fingered” star’s rise to fame from wild man-on-the-street videos for Canadian public access TV to his prank-filled MTV sensation, which aired from 1994 and 2000.

The show’s heyday included stunts that paved the way for show’s like “Jackass,” and even a lighthearted appearance by Monica Lewinsky at a time when late-night shows were skewering her.

The show was so popular that Green was even named-dropped in Eminem’s opus “The Real Slim Shady,” in a line inspired by a sketch Green did humping a moose.

We’re told the doc will also touch on his five-month marriage to Barrymore, and his battle with testicular cancer.

Green currently lives on 100-acres in Ottawa with his parents, and takes care of a rescue animals including a donkey, horses, chickens and his dog, Charley.

His new life “off the grid” will be the focus of the four-episode, “Tom Green Country.”
