Netflix, the world’s leading internet entertainment service, is producing its first local production in the Middle East, with Lebanese comedian and actor Adel Karam. Performing his stand-up comedy, the first Middle East Original is expected to launch to all Netflix members around the world in 2018.
In this yet-to-be-named comedy special, produced by Creative Arab Talent, Adel will tackle everything from relationships to social issues that most Arabs face every day with his distinctly Arab blend of smart, sarcastic humor. He is going back to his hometown to record his performances, appearing at Beirut’s renowned Casino du Liban for the first time.
