The CNN Films project arrives at a time when Chase's career and behavior are under renewed examination. The documentary reportedly addresses his departures from "Saturday Night Live" and "Community," as well as personal health struggles, including a medically induced coma he experienced for eight days due to heart failure during the pandemic.
"Im Chevy Chase and Youre Not" aims to trace Chase's ascent as a pivotal figure in modern television comedy. The film features interviews with numerous individuals connected to Chase, promising insights into his creative process and personal life.
Chase rose to prominence as one of the original cast members of "Saturday Night Live," where his "Weekend Update" segments and physical comedy established him as a major comedic force. He then transitioned to a successful film career, starring in classics such as "National Lampoon's Vacation" and "Caddyshack." However, reports of difficult behavior on set and clashes with colleagues have also shadowed his career. The documentary is expected to explore these contrasting aspects of his public persona.
