Hugh Grant and Keira Knightley for Red Nose Day 2017


15 02 2017

Director Richard Curtis has teamed up with Comic Relief to create a new short film for Red Nose Day, revisiting the characters from his 2003 blockbuster Love Actually 'to discover what they're up to in 2017'.

Actors Hugh Grant, Keira Knightley, Andrew Lincoln, Colin Firth, Bill Nighy, Liam Neeson, and Rowan Atkinson are among the many original cast members set to reprise their roles for the film, which airs March 24 on BBC One. Curtis commented 'We’ve been delighted and grateful that so many of the cast are around and able to take part... 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'.
