Charlie Brooker, the creator of Black Mirror, and one of the most creative TV minds of our time, is set to collaborate with Netflix for a mockumentary about 2020 – a year marked by upheavals and tragedies.
British actor Hugh Grant will star in the project as a ‘repellent historian’ narrating the eventful year 2020.
“Charlie Brooker has written a mockumentary about 2020. It’s for Netflix. I will be an historian who’s being interviewed about the year. I’m pretty repellent, actually! And you’ll like my wig,” Grant told New York Magazine.

Netflix is yet to confirm the project. The streaming giant started airing the fifth season of Brooker’s Black Mirror, which was initially telecast on UK’s Channel 4.
The latest season starred Anthony Mackie, Miley Cyrus, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Topher Grace, Andrew Scott, and more.
Charlie Brooker, a revered cultural satirist, won five Primetime Emmy Awards for his acclaimed series Black Mirror.
