The original cast of Love Actually are reuniting to film a sequel short

Last Updated on July 31, 2021

LOVE ACTUALLY follows the lives of eight very different couples in dealing with their love lives in various loosely interrelated tales all set during a frantic month before Christmas in London, England. The film has become a romance and Christmas staple, and it looks like fans of the original film will have something to celebrate soon enough! The filmmakers and cast are returning to create a 10-minute sure that catches up with our characters in 2017 in order to benefit Comic Relief!

RED NOSE DAY ACTUALLY (as it's being called), will be written by the original film's writer/director, Richard Curtis, as well as Hugh Grant, Keira Knightley and Colin Firth. Those stars, as well as Liam Neeson, Bill Nighy, Rowan Atkinson, Martine McCutcheon, Andrew Lincoln, Lucia Moniz, Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Olivia Olson will all be reprising their roles. Even better is that the short is set to premiere on BBC One on March 24th. Here's hoping they can capture some of the magic that makes the original film so special!

RED NOSE DAY ACTUALLY, the 10-minute sequel, will air on March 24th on BBC One.
