Dave Chappelle, Louis C.K., Tracy Morgan and Jerry Seinfeld are just some of the big-name comedians debuting specials in the months ahead.

Amy Schumer is just one of several comedians set to debut a stand-up special on Netflix, with her special dropping Tuesday on the streaming service.

Netflix aggressively entered the stand-up space a few years ago, and has been consistently outbidding rivals including Comedy Central, Showtime and HBO to land bold-face names. In addition to Schumer, Netflix will air upcoming specials from Dave Chappelle, Louis C.K., Tracy Morgan, Jerry Seinfeld, Sarah Silverman and Chris Rock, the latter of whom got a whopping $40 million for two specials.

Here are just some of the big-name comedians set to debut concert specials on Netflix in the months ahead.

She is set to make her return to the big screen alongside Goldie Hawn in their new comedy, Snatched, to be released May 12.
