Înainte de „Chernobyl”, lucrarea sa cea mai apreciată a fost scenariul filmului „The Hangover Part II” (6.5), potrivit Meduza.io. Scriitorul consideră că trecerea lui de la comedii la un film istoric despre o catastrofă este una „destul de consecventă”: „Am apărat întotdeauna autorii comediilor. M-am gândit la istoriile pe care le spunem în Occident despre Holocaust și despre cel de-al Doilea Război Mondial și despre faptul că ne străduim să nu distorsionăm realitatea, pentru că acesta este un semn de respect”. Am încercat să o redăm așa cum a fost această catastrofă, cum a fost simțită Au fost multe nuanțe. Noul film a fost anunțat pe Instagram de producatorul lui Danila Kozlovski - Alexandr Rodnianski.

Spitale şi case abandonate, diferite obiecte distruse şi aruncate la nimereală sunt tot ce-a rămas dintr-un fost oraş sovietic prosper. Oraşul găzduia cercetători, muncitori şi paznici de la centrala nucleară Cernobîl, aflată la doar trei kilometri depărtare. Printre cele mai impresionante locuri fotografiate de Roland se numără o cameră unde patul a rămas nearanjat, iar în dulap mai sunt şi acum resturi de mâncare. Apartamentul lasă impresia că a fost părăsit în urmă cu doar câteva zile. În ciuda dezastrului, reactoarele 1, 2 şi 3 de la Cernobîl au fost repornite şi au funcţionat până în decembrie 2000.
