Netflix naturally makes confidentiality agreements with a number of actors, directors and important names in the industry for its upcoming shows. One of them is comedian Dave Chappelle. Dave Chappelle signed a deal with the company for The Closer special, which is expected to be released on Netflix soon. However, the leaking of the details of this agreement caused Netflix to fire an employee.
According to the news of Variety, a Netflix employee shared the money the famous comedian will receive from Netflix and some commercially sensitive information with different media outlets. Among the leaked information, it was said that Netflix would pay the full $24.1 million to The Closer, while Netflix fired its employee who leaked this information. In the meantime, let’s mention that Squid Game, which is currently breaking records all over the world, cost the company $21.4 million.
Netflix defended the dismissal, explaining, “We understand that this employee may be disappointed and hurt with Netflix, but maintaining a culture of trust and transparency is at the heart of our company.” . .
