He lied!

Because Adam Sandler’s tyrannical reign on Netflix is far from over, he’s already working on his next movie. This time, he and his Grown Ups co-star Chris Rock are reteaming for a wedding comedy, titled The Week Of.

Dave Chappelle has definitely come back to the limelight over the last year, between SNL hostings and new Netflix specials, but with numbers like these, you’d think he never left. Netflix reveals that Chappelle’s dual standup premieres became their most-viewed comedy specials ever.

Chappelle’s Show has been off the air long enough that you might overlook a connection to Key & Peele, though Dave Chappelle certainly popularized the format of comedians having carte blanche over a sketch show.

In the election’s immediate aftermath, we had to wonder if Alec Baldwin had the SNL commitment to keep playing Trump as necessary for such a weekly target.

Octavia Spencer also stars in the skit.

As if Dave Chappelle turning in three new Netflix comedy specials weren’t news enough, you won’t even have to wait until April for the first two. A first teaser sets a March premiere for the apparently-soulful special, keeping Dave’s trend of dramatic intros.

Netflix has been on a whirlwind pickup of A-list comedians for its flourishing standup stable, and some of the bigger additions are finally coming out to play.
