BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Jan. 6 (UPI) -- The Ricky Gervais-Eric Bana comedy Special Correspondents is to premiere on Netflix on April 29, the streaming service said Wednesday.
Gervais wrote, directed and produced the movie, which is about "a struggling, New York-based radio journalist whose arrogance and decadent lifestyle has hindered his career," a news release said.
"With his job on the line, he fakes front-line war reports from the comfort of his hideout above a Spanish restaurant in Queens."
The cast also includes Vera Farmiga, Kelly Macdonald, Kevin Pollak, America Ferrera, Raúl Castillo and Benjamin Bratt.
