Netflix
announces
a
new
Dave
Chappelle
comedy
special
will
hit
the
streaming
service
globally
later
this
month.
Dave
Chappelle
is
gearing
up
to
bless
fans
with
his
comedic
charm
once
again
as
the
ball
drops
into
2024.
Recently
Netflix
dropped
the
bomb
he
will
return
to
the
streaming
service
with
a
new
comedy
special.
Unlike
previous
times
very
few
details
were
revealed
about
the
special.
There
hasn’t
been
an
announcement
of
the
title
or
where
it
was
filmed.
Additionally,
Chappelle
has
toured
recently
but
at
his
shows,
he
locks
everyone’s
cell
phones
in
plastic
bags.
That
stops
any
leaks
of
material
in
audio
or
video
form
from
hitting
the
internet.
The
unnamed
special
will
launch
globally
for
Netflix
on
December
31,
2023.
His
last
special
The
Closer
released
in
October
of
2021
and
caused
an
uproar
online
and
internally
at
Netflix.
Chappelle
was
accused
of
being
transphobic
due
to
the
jokes
he
told
in
the
special.
Netflix
employees
staged
a
walkout
in
support
of
the
transgender
community
but
the
CEO
Ted
Sarandos
didn’t
back
down.
He
refused
to
take
the
special
down
stating
he
“doesn’t
believe
it
falls
into
hate
speech”
according
to
Wikipedia.

Dave
Chappelle

an
event

the
Hollywood
Bowl

many
assumed
was
just
another
night

Additionally,
