It's sort of weird seeing Ricky Gervais firing a gun, even when it is in a comic capacity.

The man behind The Office and Extras shared an exclusive trailer for his latest film project, Special Correspondents, on his social media channels Wednesday afternoon.

The film stars Gervais alongside Eric Bana and Kelly Macdonald. From the trailer, it looks like a slapsticky romp about some radio journalists who pretend to be broadcasting from war-torn Ecuador when they're actually safe in New York... until they actually have to go to Ecuador after they're suspected of going missing.
