Sarah Silverman has reached a milestone in her career – she will be headlining her first HBO comedy special.
This fall, expect to see Sarah Silverman: We Are Miracles on your small screen. In partnership with Funny or Die, the special will be shot next month.
EW reports that Silverman, who has been seen in a handful of movies and has had her own show called The Sarah Silverman Program as well as movie Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic, will fit perfectly with the premium channel as it will allow her to be a bit less censored.
HBO programming president, Michael Lombardo, said in a statement, “Sarah Silverman is a fresh, fearless and utterly original comedy voice. I’m thrilled that we can bring the humor of this unique talent to our viewers,” THR reports.
Silverman will executive produce the special along with Heidi Herzon, Mike Farah, Anna Wenger, Betsy Koch and Amy Zvi. Liam Lynch will wear many hats, and will act as director, consulting producer and editor for the special.
