Out of all the funny talent featured in the cast of Jack Whitehall ’s holiday special, Jack in Time for Christmas, Michael Bublé made the comedian laugh the most on set. “[Bublé’s] a natural comedian. He improved loads of sketch ideas and was swearing a bunch in the improv, Whitehall, 36, exclusively told Us Weekly.
“He dropped a C-bomb and when Michael Bublé drops a C-bomb, a fairy dies,” Whitehall quipped. “He’s got this wicked sense of humor, and it was a joy to be around.” The British comedian and Bublé, 49, first developed a “bromance” when they were guests on The Graham Norton Show in 2012.
“Then, I was watching an interview he did where he said he wanted to do a road trip and I pitched it. Little did he know the road trip comment would lock him into us doing this movie together,” Whitehall said. “I’m so glad it happened; we’re still very close.
” Jack in Time for Christmas, is based on Whitehall’s favorite Christmas movies as a kid. “It was a homage to various movies like Cool Runnings, a ton of others, with a load of sketches, interviews and stunts,” he told Us. “It was a miracle we got it made, the air miles alone flying all over the world to film with all these people was incredible.
” The Christmas comedy special, which is partially-scripted, is set to release on Prime Video in December. Jack in Time for Christmas will follow Whitehall stranded in the U.S.
with only four days to return to the U.K. for the holiday.
