John Mulaney To Perform For The First Time Since Checking Into Rehab For Cocaine Addiction

Share

Comedian John Mulaney announced a series of performances in May, his first since checking into rehab for cocaine addiction in December.

Brooklyn Vegan: “Dubbed John Mulaney: From Scratch, the five performances will take place May 10-14 at City Winery. Tickets are on sale now.  Beloved for standup specials such as New in Town, and the Emmy-winning Kid Gorgeous, Mulaney has not performed live in recent months while focusing on his sobriety. He hosted NBC’s Saturday Night Live in both February and October 2020, and last November took a job on the writing staff at Late Night With Seth Meyers.

Mulaney also announced via Marvel Studios that he would be returning as Peter Porker aka The Amazing Spider-Ham in Into the Spiderverse 2.

Per Page Six, a source told the outlet in February that post-leaving his 60-day rehab program, Mulaney “is still not ready to return to work.” It would seem outpatient sober care has helped the comedian get back up on his feet, though the details of his outpatient treatment are undisclosed for now. As the insider told Page Six, Mulaney’s cooperation might have expedited matters on his path to wellness. “He’s on board with his recovery, he’s not fighting against rehab,” the source shared.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2 will now hit cinemas in the UK and US on October 7, 2022.
