Netflix said Monday it will debut in 2016 a new feature movie by British comedian Ricky Gervais about a radio reporter who files fake news about a far-away war from the comfort of a Manhattan hideout. "Special Correspondents," starring Australian actor Eric Bana, is the latest in a growing stable of original productions being rolled out by the online video streaming service. "It’s the kind of great grown-up comedy that studios rarely make anymore, one that’s perfect for Netflix members around the world," said Netflix content chief Ted Sarandos. Showbiz trade journal Variety reported in October "Special Correspondents" would be a remake of a 2009 French comedy, "Envoyes Tres Speciaux," by director Frederic Auburtin.
