Jermaine Harris Talks Growth, Comedy and Finding His Lane in Joe’s College Road Trip

Rising actor Jermaine Harris is stepping into a new chapter of his career with Joe’s College Road Trip, bringing humor, heart, and authenticity to the coming-of-age comedy.

In our conversation, Harris reflected on what drew him to the project and why the story feels timely. “It’s funny, but it’s also real,” he shared. “It’s about transition — figuring out who you are when life starts changing.” That emotional throughline, he explained, is what makes the film resonate beyond the laughs.

On Building Chemistry and Comedy

Road trip films live or die on chemistry, and Harris credits the ensemble cast for creating an environment that felt organic from day one. “We really leaned into each other’s strengths,” he said. “When you trust the people you’re working with, the comedy lands naturally.”

Harris also noted that comedy requires rhythm and listening — not just delivering punchlines. “Some of the funniest moments came from reactions, not just jokes,” he added.

What’s Next

With this latest role, Harris continues to expand his range while staying grounded in stories that feel personal and honest. When asked what he hopes audiences take away from the film, he didn’t hesitate: “Enjoy the ride — but also see yourself in it.”
