As reported by Variety, the 38-year-old comedian has secured a one-hour stand-up special on Netflix. The show is expected to film early 2019, with an expected worldwide premiere later that year.
“Tiffany Haddish is a force,” said Lisa Nishimura, vice president of original documentary and comedy for Netflix. “Hilariously funny, brash and self-effacing, she’s an incredible artist who is winning over audiences while breaking barriers, and we are tremendously proud that she will showcase her formidable talent on Netflix.”
The yet-to-be-titled stand-up special will mark Haddish’s second Netflix deal, following her voice role for the company’s upcoming animated series Tuca & Bertie. She will join a prestigious list of comedians who’ve inked Netflix deals over the past several years, including Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Amy Schumer, and Ellen DeGeneres.
Haddish will star in the upcoming films The Oath, Nobody’s Fool, and Night School with Kevin Hart. The Girls Trip breakout star is also developing a HBO comedy series called Unsubscribed.
Clearly, the upcoming year is gonna be huge for Haddish.
