Chris Rock Signs With WME For Representation


Comedian Chris Rock has signed with WME for representation in all areas including acting, directing, comedy touring, books, and more.

Rock had been with Yablans for 30 years, at ICM and then at CAA, a tenure that included the record-setting at the time $40-million deal with Netflix in 2016 for two standup specials. Rock’s 2023 Netflix special Selective Outrage also made history as the platform’s first-ever global live-streamed event. He also is attached to helm the U.S. remake of Oscar-winning Danish film Another Round and a Martin Luther King Jr. biopic produced by Steven Spielberg for Universal Pictures.
