Netflix has actually gone down an intro for Dave Chappelle‘s upcoming New Year’ s Eve special, Dave Chappelle: The Daydreamer.
The very first appearance is told by Morgan Freeman, that asks, “What do you dream about? Not the dreams you have in your sleep, the ones you hold in your heart. Don’t be intimidated by the audacity of your dream — be inspired by it.”
The intro after that reduces to Freeman resting alongside Chappelle. As both see the special, Freeman states, “What happens to a dream deferred? Lucky for Dave, he doesn’t know.”
The Daydreamer was fired in Chappelle’s home town of Washington, DC at the historical Lincoln Theater and was guided by Emmy Honor champion Stan Lathan, that has actually helmed all 7 of Chappelle’s specials for the streaming titan.
The Daydreamer complies with Chappelle’s last special, The Closer, which debuted on Netflix on Oct. 5, 2021. The special was chosen for 2 Emmys however rapidly stimulated reaction when aspects of the hourlong funny program were slammed for being transphobic and homophobic.
Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos waited the special and claimed he would certainly not be drawing it from the system, in spite of the reaction, which stimulated an online walkout from numerous Netflix workers. Sarandos inevitably claimed the special remained in line with the banner’s position towards “artistic expression” and informed THR he really did not believe it was “appropriate” to include any kind of please note on top of the special.
At the time, The Closer was billed as the last of a six-special bundle of Chappelle web content for the banner. Soon after, in very early 2022, Netflix introduced it was remaining in service with Chappelle when it established 4 extra funny specials with the comic concentrating on various other seasoned comics.
