Netflix continues to work with Dave Chappelle on new comedy series despite backlash

Dave Chappelle has more Netflix projects in the pipeline despite pressure for the streaming service to cut ties with the comedian.

Months after outrage erupted over Chappelle's remarks about transgender people in his Netflix comedy special "The Closer," the streaming service announced Friday that Chappelle, 48, will both executive produce and appear in a new series of comedy specials.

"Chappelle’s Home Team" will debut its first special, "Earthquake: Legendary," on Feb. 28, featuring the comedian Earthquake as he "shakes up the stage and delivers aftershocks while going in hard on health as wealth, prostate exams and disciplining kids," according to a release provided by Netflix.

Chappelle will appear in each special to introduce the comedians. The second special, which has a yet-to-be-announced release date, will feature Donnell Rawlings, the release adds.

Dave Chappelle has more Netflix projects in the pipeline, despite pressure for the streaming service to cut ties with the comedian.

"I've been doing this a long time and comedians like Quake and Donnell are not only friends but have inspired my own career," Chappelle said in a statement. "Anyone in the comedy community knows these names and knows their time to shine is long overdue. I am proud to be a part of this moment."

Chappelle's special "The Closer" sparked outage and debate surrounding his remarks about the LGBTQ+ community, and in particular the transgender community. In the special, Chappelle attempted to juxtapose the pace of civil rights gained by LGBTQ people over those fought for by the Black community and expressed solidarity with "Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling, who drew backlash in 2019 for comments about gender.
