Chris Rock, Netflix Offer "Road to Live" Ahead of "Selective Outrage"

With Chris Rock: Selective Outrage live-streaming in a few hours, the actor/comedian & Netflix are offering a look back at Rock's comedy tour.

When it comes to live-streaming, Netflix & Chris Rock are set to take a very deep dive in just a few hours with the streamer and actor & comedian's stand-up special, Chris Rock: Selective Outrage. Before we pass along all of the information that you'll need to know (including intel on the pre-show & post-show), Netflix & Rock have put together a mini-documentary highlighting (with images) what Rock's past year has been like while he's been on tour – including appearances from Dave Chappelle, Adam Sandler, Kevin Hart, and others.

Here's a look at a featurette that does an excellent job of getting everyone up-to-speed on what went down during Rock's comedy tour over the past year as a lead-up to tonight's "Selective Outrage":

And just a quick reminder that while Rock's special will be available on-demand after the livestream, both the pre-show & the post-show will be one-and-done (meaning they're not being archived). So with the global live event set for March 4th at 10 pm ET/7 pm PT, here's a look at the date announcement teaser for Netflix's Chris Rock Live: Selective Outrage (followed by a look at what you need to know about the pre-show and the post-show specials):
