Trailer For HBO Max's MARLON WAYANS: GOD LOVES ME Comedy Special
HBO Max has released the trailer for the upcoming comedy special Marlon Wayans: God Loves Me. In the trailer, he cracks jokes about Chris Rock, Will Smith, and Jada Pinkett Smith, and he tells the jokes as someone who personally knows all of the people involved.
Marlon Wayans said in a statement: "I'm excited to be back in business with HBO Max. We've had a lot of success with my last two specials so this will be great. I know HBO Max and the sophisticated team of executives are notorious for being true tastemakers and snobs of comedy, so I am flattered that they found this special to be… special."
The special was filmed at the Center Stage Theater in Atlanta, where “Wayans delivers a hilarious hour-long performance, unleashing his spot-on impressions and fearless physical comedy to address one of the most infamous recent events in pop culture – ‘the slap that took place at the 94th Academy Awards® ceremony."
With his inimitable blunt and boisterous style, “Wayans skillfully weaves anecdotes from his own life with stories about his long-time friends, from divulging his teenage crush on Jada Pinkett Smith, getting humbled by Chris Rock in an early stand-up set, and examining the impact of Will Smith's long career. A daring tour-de-force, this special is a hysterical yet thoughtful exploration of friendship, family, mistakes, and redemption."
The comedy special will start streaming on March 2 on HBO Max. Enjoy the trailer!
