Fresh from his most recent stand-up special Armageddon recently being nominated for a Grammy award, winning a Golden Globe, hitting Number 1 on Netflix and claiming the world record for the highest grossing comedy gig of all time, Mortality will once again be filmed for Netflix.

Gervais said: “We’re all gonna die. May as well have a laugh about it. Mortality looks at the absurdities of life. And death. Bring it on.”
