Leading British film distributor True Brit Entertainment has today debuted the trailer for Nick Love‘s (The Business, The Sweeney, The Football Factory, The Firm, “Bulletproof”) outrageous, proper naughty comedy about addiction, violence, and happy endings, Marching Powder. The film marks the long-anticipated reunion of Love with long-term collaborator and national treasure Danny Dyer (“EastEnders“, The Football Factory, The Business, Human Traffic).
Set in the chaotic, no-holds-barred world of cult classic The Football Factory, Marching Powder is a hilarious, poignant, and action-packed comedy-drama. The story follows Jack Jones (Dyer), an aging, drug-addled football hooligan struggling to maintain relevance in a rapidly changing society that seems to have left him behind. Torn between the allure of the adrenaline-fueled violence that once defined his existence and the desperate need to keep his family together, Jack finds himself teetering on the edge of an abyss, his life spiraling out of control.
When a violent matchday incident results in Jack’s arrest, he’s given a stark ultimatum – turn his life around in six weeks or face a lengthy prison sentence. As he juggles his marriage, friendships, and dysfunctional family, Jack tries to overcome his inner demons, but his world continues to spiral out of control. Can he find redemption, or will he end up doing porridge?
The ensemble cast joining Dyer includes Stephanie Leonidas (5lbs of Pressure, “Snatch”), Callum Macnab (The Firm, The Football Factory), Arty Dyer, Bailey Patrick (“London Kills”, “Bodyguard”), Lex Shrapnel (“Sexy Beast”, “The Bay”), Janet Kumah (“Criminal Record”) and Geoff Bell (Green Street, “Top Boy”).
Marching Powder is produced by Chris Clark, Will Clarke, Redrums Films & Altitude Media Group and will release in cinemas in 2025.
