People started pouring in their suggestions, with one user saying that James Corden should do carpool karaoke with Bernie Mac, who refuses to sing ‘Christmas Is All Around’.
Despite the fact that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently reminded us of Hugh Grant’s character in Love Actually, the 2003 film has not had any developments on the screen since.

The short film will premiere on BBC 1 on March 24 in the UK, and will air on NBC in the US on May 25. We’ll be looking out for it on YouTube from then!
