Amy Schumer Is Getting Her Own HBO Comedy Special

May 7 2015 - 1:31pm

Are you busy on May 29? If not, Comedy Central star Amy Schumer is filming a stand-up special for HBO at the Apollo Theater in New York City! Chris Rock will direct the special, which makes this news even more awesome. Once it's edited, it'll premiere on HBO later this year. You can see Schumer weekly on Inside Amy Schumer [1], and she'll make her big-screen leading-lady debut in Trainwreck [2] on July 17. Until then, enjoy her announcement (complete with Throwback Thursday photo) below. Oh, and if you do happen to live in New York, tickets go on sale on Friday.
