Ricky Gervais’ Netflix movie casts America Ferrera and Vera Farmiga
Vera Farmiga and Ugly Betty star America Ferrera have signed on to the cast of Ricky Gervais’ Netflix movie Special Correspondents. The film—a remake of a French one—stars Eric Bana as a reporter who fakes front-line war reporting from the comfort and safety of his New York apartment. Gervais, who’s writing and directing the project, also co-stars, although he’s keeping a tight lid on which of his many varied personas—Smarmy British Guy? Other Smarmy British Guy? Derek?—he’ll utilize for the role.
