With his cousin Mark, they grew up in St. Louis, Missouri and attended the same high school and college, where they launched a sketch comedy troupe and began writing together. They moved to Los Angeles and landed their first job in entertainment by writing the MTV movie "2gether," a spoof about a fictional boy band. "2gether" became the first full-length feature film in the history of the network. It also spawned a concert tour, two top-40 albums, with many of the songs written by them, and a weekly television series, created and executive produced by the Gunns, which ran for two seasons on MTV. Since then the Gunns have transitioned from television into film. "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island" was the first of their movies in wide theatrical release.
