It’s a canny satire on all aspects of the Hollywood film industry (while feeling extremely British) and one that may come quite close to the truth.” Anita Singh, The Telegraph “Chivalry is a quality, precision-engineered piece of work by a duo with extraordinary chemistry, both on- and off-screen, in the writers’ room. “It’s a brave comedy that steps up to satirise gender politics in Hollywood in the wake of #MeToo. Chivalry did feel at times like it was holding back…

Chivalry review, Steve Coogan and Sarah Solemani (BOL News)

There is an unquestionable sense in which new Channel 4 series Chivalry, co-written by and co-starring Steve Coogan and Sarah Solemani, asked the question, ...

This is folded into the main theme, the tendency of power to corrupt. If the portrait of a man applying limited intelligence to matters of deep import, here Chivalry plays to Coogan’s greatest power, it is still so much more. He has pictured some scenes with the leading lady and he is now trying to persuade to reshoot scenes from his latest project.

TV Review: Chivalry, C4 (Beyond The Joke)

Chivalry, C4, Thursdays, 10pm and on All4 starring steve coogan, sarah solemani, lolly adefope, paul rudd, john c Reilly, Aisling Bea.

Aisling Bea joins the cast in the second part and brings more quickfire laughs to the party. I've been to Hollywood a few times and the sky has never been anything but clear blue. I thought it would be more of a comedy drama, not a 24-minute episode sitcom format, but at times it is played for out and out laughs, such as when Cameron gets in a linguistic tangle with assistant Ama (Lolly Adefope, pictured), over, firstly, her name and then over the naming of female genitalia.

Chivalry review: Steve Coogan and Sarah Solemani's #MeToo ... (Evening Standard)

N. ot many people would have the courage to make a comedy right now about the new 'woke' post-#MeToo Hollywood. Step forward Steve Coogan and Sarah Solemani.

(One of the most amusing lines is when after having sucked up to Paul Rudd as soon as he is out of earshot Cameron says “he is one of the most unpleasant characters I’ve ever met.”). Cameron wants to sack the “sex doctor, sorry sex officer” as the scene is stalling. His main objective in life is now to “avoid getting my bottom spanked by a bunch of angry feminists”. ot many people would have the courage to make a comedy right now about the new ‘woke’ post-#MeToo Hollywood. Step forward Steve Coogan and Sarah Solemani. Their ironically titled Chivalry, which they co-wrote and in which they co-star, is part critique of the systemic sexism in the film industry, part Hollywood satire. Cameron O’Neill (played by Coogan) is an old school Hollywood film producer desperately trying to navigate the new ‘woke’ post #MeToo Hollywood landscape. The pace is gentle, a bit like Ricky Gervais’ Extras, which feels, with the various celebrity cameos, like a strong influence.
