Daniel Edward Aykroyd, nato a Ottawa, inizialmente ha studiato psicologia, sociologia criminale e scienze politiche alla Carleton University, dove il suo percorso comico è decollato. Co-scriveva sketch per una compagnia privata di cavo, accendendo la sua passione per la recitazione. A 20 anni, si unì alla compagnia comica The Second City a Chicago e Toronto, segnando l'inizio della sua carriera. Nel 1975, Aykroyd entrò a far parte di "Saturday Night Live" come membro fondatore dei "Not Ready For Prime Time Players", creando sketch iconici come "The Blues Brothers" con Belushi e "Two Wild and Crazy Guys" con Steve Martin. Il successo dello sketch "The Blues Brothers" portò a un lungometraggio nel 1980, con Aykroyd che scriveva e produceva la colonna sonora del film, sfidando l'era disco e punk. Il suo talento versatile brilla in ruoli come il dottor Ray Stantz in "Ghostbusters", il figlio di Jessica Tandy in "Driving Miss Daisy", un padre single in "My Girl" e un assassino in "Grosse Pointe Blank", mostrando sia abilità comiche che drammatiche.
