Jude Law has pulled out of an appearance in Ricky Gervais' latest sitcom, Extras.
The Alfie actor originally planned to make a cameo appearance on the show, but has now been forced to abandon the idea, because he is too busy, according to The Sun.
The show follows Andy Millman, played by Gervais, a struggling actor who spends most of his time in the green room with his fellow extras.
Samuel L Jackson, Kate Winslet, Ben Stiller, Ross Kemp, Vinnie Jones and Les Dennis have signed up to play "twisted versions" of themselves in the series, which launches in the summer.
