Watch the trailer for Special – new comedy about life of gay man with cerebral palsy

Why be normal when you can be Special? Netflix has dropped its first trailer for their groundbreaking new comedy ‘Special’ which looks at the life of a gay man with cerebral palsy. 

Special, is a distinctive and uplifting new series about a gay man, Ryan with mild cerebral palsy who decides to rewrite his identity and finally go after the life he wants. After years of dead-end internships, working in his pajamas as a blogger and communicating mostly via text, Ryan eventually figured out how to take his life from bleak to chic and began limping towards adulthood.

The offbeat comedy is based on series creator and star Ryan O’Connell’s memoir, “I’m Special: And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves.” O’Connell also serves as executive producer alongside Jim Parsons (Big Bang Theory).

Special will be available on Netflix from April 12.
