Mo'Nique's Netflix Special 'My Name Is Mo'Nique' Will Be Released On April 4th

Mo’Nique, the Grammy-nominated, Oscar- and Golden Globe-winning actor and comedian, has announced the release date for his first Netflix stand-up special. My Name Is Mo’Nique, the special, will be released on April 4.

According to the synopsis for the special:

Mo’Nique delivers a career defining, powerhouse stand-up performance in her unprecedented return to the stage. Filled with laugh till you cry stories as well as soul bearing emotion, Mo’Nique promises that by the end of the show you will understand why she is the way she is, and true to form, she delivers. From the mean streets of Baltimore and remembering her Grandma Mimi’s warnings about men, to why she “ACCEPTS” the sometimes-harsh realities that come with life, Mo’Nique with her unique brand of candor, fearlessness, and humor reveals all of herself, and leaves nothing on the table.

L. Frazier directed the special, and Sidney and Monique Hicks served as executive producers.

Mo’Nique will also make a return to Netflix in Lee Daniels’ film The Deliverance.
