Jo Koy Lands Two More Stand-Up Specials at Netflix; the Next One Will Tape This November in Brooklyn (EXCLUSIVE)

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large Jo Koy is extending his relationship with Netflix, signing a deal to bring his next two stand-up comedy specials to the streamer. The specials will mark Koy’s fifth and sixth with Netflix; first up, the next one will tape at the Kings Theatre in Brooklyn on November 10 and 11, with an expected 2024 premiere. Art & Industry is producing that special.

The first of the two new specials, produced by Art & Industry, will tape at the Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, NY on November 10 and 11. The special will premiere in 2024. Koy is currently on his “Jo Koy World Tour,” performing three sold-out shows this weekend (with a fourth just added) on Guam.

His most recent Netflix special, “Jo Koy: Live At The Los Angeles Forum,” premiered in September 2022. His June 2020 Netflix special “Jo Koy: In His Elements,” was shot in Manila and featured local culture, as well as Filipino-American comedians, DJs and B-boys. The Pinoy comedian’s other hour-long standup specials for Netflix include 2017’s “Live from Seattle” and 2019’s “Comin’ In Hot.” Last year, Koy starred in Universal Pictures’ “Easter Sunday,” based on his stand-up comedy.

He’ll next be heard in Netflix’s animated fantasy action comedy “The Monkey King,” which bows August 18 globally on the service. Jimmy O. Yang, Bowen Yang, Stephanie Hsu and BD Wong also star.
