Jerrod Carmichael to star in new comedy documentary for HBO

Jerrod Carmichael has worked with HBO on his last few specials, including last year’s Rothaniel. Now, it’s been announced that Carmichael has another project in the works.

Carmichael will star in and executive producer a new untitled comedy documentary series based on his life. According to the longline, the series “centers on Jerrod Carmichael’s personal life, following him through encounters with friends, family, and strangers, all in his quest for love, sex, and connection.”

“We’ve loved working with Jerrod over the past 10 years, and to watch him discover new layers of both himself and his comedy. ‘Rothanial’ resonated with audiences in such a profound way, and his honesty and vulnerability are a perfect fit for this original format.”

Carmichael has had a pretty big year of exposure, from hosting SNL to hosting the Golden Globes. We can’t wait to see what they do with the series!
