Her Netflix special, Leanne Morgan: I’m Every Woman, reached the Top 10 and is one of the highest-rated comedy specials of the year. This tremendous success has earned Morgan accolades, including being named one of Variety’s “Top 10 Comics to Watch for 2023” and a spot on Forbes’ prestigious “50 Over 50” list.

Adding to her impressive list of accomplishments, Morgan was personally selected by legendary TV producer Chuck Lorre to star in a new sitcom inspired by her stand-up comedy. She will also make her feature film debut alongside Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell in the highly anticipated comedy “You’re Cordially Invited”, set to premiere in January 2025.
