The film is their fifth together following the likes of Outlaw’(2007), The Business (2005) The Football Factory (2004) and Goodbye Charlie Bright (2001), and will be released in cinemas in 2024.Marching Powder follows the story of Jack (Danny Dyer), a middle aged, drug taking football hooligan, who is arrested and given six weeks to turn his life around, or else face a long spell in prison. Juggling his marriage, his hard nut bully of a father-in-law and his wayward 25-year-old stepbrother, Kenny Boy, Jack tries to get his life back on track, but slowly his world starts to spiral hilariously out of control.On the film and reuniting with Nick Love, Danny Dyer commented: “I’m buzzing to be getting back on the horse with Nick, he’s the only f*cking idiot stupid enough. “Marching Powder” is class, we’re back in the world of The Football Factory with more violence, more drugs and lots of f*cking comedy, you’re going to love it.“Writer / Director Nick Love commented, “At this point in my career, it’s either ‘Marching Powder’ or the dole so thank God Danny Dyer said yes to playing the lead. It’s gonna be a blast and we can’t wait to share the film with the world, if they can handle it.”The Independent British feature film starts shooting in London in January 2024 and will be released in cinemas by new distributor True Brit Entertainment later that year.The film marks Dyer’s first film role since leaving hit soap Eastenders.More as it comes in.When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.@ THN - The Hollywood News 2023
