As previously announced, writer-director Richard Curtis and the cast of his beloved holiday film Love Actually are coming together again for “Red Nose Day Actually,” a short film that will air as part of The Red Nose Day Special May 25 on NBC and March 24’s Red Nose Day in the U.K. on BBC1.
From an original script by Curtis, the founder of Red Nose Day, the short film revisits the characters of the 2003 film Love Actually to discover what they’re up to in 2017.
We hope to make something that’ll be fun, very much in the spirit of the original film and of Red Nose Day, and which we hope will help bring lots of viewers and cash to the Red Nose Day shows.”
“Over the years I’ve enjoyed doing Red Nose Day specials of TV things I’ve worked on, Blackadder, The Vicar of Dibley and Mr Bean.
