It's been a long time since Chris Rock last performed a standup special, but a lucrative deal with Netflix is bringing him back into the arena. The streaming service announced Thursday that Rock will do two specials for Netflix for a whopping $40 million, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The first show will tape in 2017 after Rock does a world tour with the material -- the tour is being planned now. Rock going to Netflix is a blow to HBO, since Rock and the network have a long relationship.
