Disney+ has released the first-look images from the highly anticipated, brand-new series of The Full Monty.
Taking place 25 years after the original British smash hit, the eight-parter returns to Sheffield and follows the same band of brothers as they navigate society’s crumbling healthcare, education, and employment sectors.
Paul Barber reprises his role as Horse.
The comedy-drama will uncover what happened to the gang after they put their kit back on, exploring their brighter, sillier and more desperate moments. It will also highlight how the fiercely funny world of these working-class heroes – still residing in Sheffield – has changed in the intervening decades.
Robert Carlye as Gaz and Talitha Wing plays new character Destiny.
Among the lead cast reprising their fan-favourite roles are Robert Carlyle as Gaz, Mark Addy as Dave, Lesley Sharp as Jean, Hugo Speer as Guy, Paul Barber as Horse, Steve Huison as Lomper, Wim Snape as Nathan and Tom Wilkinson as Gerald.
Steve Huison is back as Lomper.
The first-look images also introduce rising star Talitha Wing, who will play Gaz’s teenage daughter, Destiny Schofield.
Writer, Creator and Exec-Producer Simon Beaufoy said: “It has been one of the great joys of my writing career to reunite this eccentric, irrepressible family of Sheffield men and women and see how 25 years, 7 Prime Ministers, and 100 broken political promises have affected their lives.”
Mark Addy, who after the first film went on to start in Hollywood films and Game of Thrones, returns as Gaz’s ever-loyal pal, Dave.
The Full Monty series will premiere in the UK on Disney+ in June
