With three stand-up specials for Netflix already to his name, Tom Segura is already one of the biggest names in modern comedy. He’s only expected to further cement his spot thanks to Tom Segura: Ball Hog, his fourth Netflix special, which premiered on March 24. But Segura’s not done, far from it in fact, and while it’s still untitled Segura already has a deal in hand for a fifth special, one which will be shot completely in Spanish this fall.
“Netflix has rapidly changed the way comedy is consumed around the world, and by releasing a Spanish language special, I look forward to being able to reach a new audience that Jo Koy and Ali Wong will never get,” said Segura. “Estoy muy emocionado por la oportunidad de entretener las amigas de mi mama,” he added.
Growing up in a half Peruvian/half American household Segura spoke both fluent english and fluent Spanish from an early age, and he recently launched a new Spanish podcast, Tom Segura En Español. No word yet on a release date for the all-Spanish Netflix special, but we’re willing to bet it’ll be every bit as hilarious as his English stand-up, and if you can’t wait for the Netflix special you can also catch him on tour at a comedy club near you.
