Dave Chappelle is back on Netflix with a new comedy special that drops on Dec. 31 and features Morgan Freeman.
Dave Chappelle: The Dreamer was filmed in the comic’s hometown of Washington D.C. at the historic Lincoln Theater.
“What do you dream about? Not the dreams you have in your sleep, the ones you hold in your heart,” Freeman’s voice is heard saying in the trailer. “Don’t be intimidated by the audacity of your dream — be inspired by it.”
Emmy Award-winning director Stan Lathan returns to direct The Dreamer, having directed all seven of Chappelle’s Netflix specials.
Chappelle has received five Emmy awards including three for his Netflix comedy special Sticks & Stones (2019) and Equanimity & The Bird Revelation (2017), and two for hosting Saturday Night Live.
The comedian is a four-time Grammy winner for The Closer, Sticks & Stones, Equanimity & The Bird Revelation, and The Age Of Spin & Deep In The Heart Of Texas.
Chappelle most recently received his fifth Grammy nomination for What’s in a Name.
His comedy tour received the Pollstar Award in 2023, 2018 and 2014. The stand-up comedian also received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in 2019.
Chappelle is set to open a comedy & music club in Yellow Springs, Ohio in early 2024.
