Black Mirror creator to make a 2020 mockumentary 

According to a report by NME, Charlie Brooker has written a mockumentary about 2020 for Netflix. While details about the mockumentary remain undisclosed, Hugh Grant let it slip earlier this year during an interview about his latest project The Undoing with New York Magazine that he’ll be featured in the project.

Talking about his role, he revealed that he will be playing a historian who is being interviewed about the year 2020. He further said that the audience will like his wig and that his character is pretty repellent. This mockumentary will be Charlie’s first project with Netflix since the streamer invested in his and Annabel Jones’s production company Broke and Bones in a landmark deal. Netflix officially came aboard Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror science-fiction series, back in 2015.

The fifth season of the show dropped on Netflix with three episodes in June 2019. Black Mirror cast includes Bryce Dallas Howard, Jon Hamm, Daniel Kaluuya, Hannah John Kamen and Hayley Atwell.

Hugh Grant's movies include Notting Hill, Love Actually, Four Weddings and a funeral, Bridget Jones' Diary and Two Weeks notice.
