Netflix nabs Ricky Gervais’ Special Correspondents

April 7, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Netflix has added to its original feature film slate by snapping up the rights to Special Correspondents, the upcoming remake of the 2009 French comedy of the same name, which sees Ricky Gervais directing and co-starring with Eric Bana (Deliver Us from Evil).

According to Netflix, Special Correspondents sees Bana as “a struggling New York-based radio journalist whose arrogance and decadent lifestyle has hindered his career. With his job on the line, he fakes front-line war reports from the comfort of his hideout above a Spanish restaurant in the heart of Manhattan.”

Special Correspondents will premiere on Netflix next year.
