As well as grossing more than $250 million globally, it pippedat the BAFTA Awards to win best film , and landed Academy Awards nominations for best picture, best director, best original screenplay and best original music, or comedy score, winning the last. It is still frequently listed as among the best British films ever made.
The small-screen return will follow the original band of brothers as they navigate the post-industrial city of Sheffield and society’s crumbling healthcare, education and employment sectors. The series will explore the brighter, sillier and more humane way forward where communal effort can still triumph over adversity. Whether there’ll be any stripping involved, Disney+ hasn’t confirmed.
“We’re chuffed to bits to get all the Monty Men back together again – now with a chaotic entourage of children, grandchildren, pets and assorted hangers-on – to see what life in Sheffield is like twenty-five years on,” said Beaufoy. “Twenty-five years ago Simon introduced us to a group of funny, fearless and resilient unemployed working-class men from Sheffield and the world fell in love with them,” added Lee Mason, Disney’s director of scripted content EMEA.
