American comedian Sarah Cooper, known for her Donald Trump knockoffs that have gone viral, will have her own special on Netflix, the group announced on Wednesday.
Dubbed "Sarah Cooper: Everything's Fine", the show composed of satirical sketches on American politics should be broadcast this fall on the platform.
The episode will be directed by "Orange is the New Black" actress Natasha Lyonne and produced by comedian Maya Rudolph from the popular "Saturday Night Live" show.
Sarah Cooper, 42, posts videos on social networks where she imitates - and caricatures - the facial expressions of the American president, whose real speeches can be heard.
The voice of the Republican billionaire is synchronized with the facial expressions and the body language of the comedian, exaggerated for comic purposes (bulging gaze, houndstooth mouth ...).
Massively relayed on TikTok, her video "How to medical" in which she replayed the famous press conference during which Donald Trump had suggested that injections of disinfectant could be useful to fight against the coronavirus, has been viewed over 20 million times.
Former Google employee Sarah Cooper now has 2 million Twitter followers.
