"It focuses on one of the most difficult moments in my journey and career, and shows the world that hope is never truly lost," he said. "Wait until you see what we do with this."
After leaving a sales job at age 26 to pursue his dreams in show business, Harvey began his career in standup and then hosted the variety show Showtime at the Apollo from 1993 to 2000.
The film will focus specifically on a pivotal 72-hour period leading up to Harvey's transformative 1993 set at the iconic Apollo Theater in Harlem.
In 2022, the entertainment legend pushed back on the idea of returning to standup, citing cancel culture as his main barrier.
