Sarah Silverman Gets Personal About Death in Trailer for Netflix Comedy Special ‘Post Mortem’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Sarah Silverman gets personal about family loss in her Netflix stand-up special "Sarah Silverman: Post Mortem," releasing May 20.

And, ooh, that one needs work,” Silverman says to a crowd of laughter in the trailer’s cold open. The official synopsis for “Post Mortem” reads: “She hilariously navigates the absurdities of death with her signature wit, from unexpectedly finding the ‘deal of a lifetime’ while planning their funerals to cherishing the bittersweet experience of hearing her mother’s last words.” Over the years, Silverman has appeared in “Maestro,” “Don’t Look Up,” “School of Rock,” “Battle of the Sexes,” “Masters of Sex,” “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” and “The Muppets,” with voice roles in “Wreck-It-Ralph,” “Ralph Breaks the Internet,” “The Simpsons” and “The Bob’s Burgers Movie.”
