The trailer for Netflix's new comedy series Special is finally out.

 

The show follows Ryan O’Connell as a fictionalised version of himself. It is based on his memoir, I’m Special: And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves, which explores his life as a gay man with cerebral palsy.

 

According to Netflix: “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 figures out how to take his life from bleak to chic and begin limping towards adulthood.”

 

The series will be released on April 12.
