What is The Beautiful Game about?

“Mal (Bill Nighy, Living, About Time) is the manager of England’s homeless football team, taking his players to Rome with the hope of being crowned champions of the Homeless World Cup, a global street soccer tournament. At the last minute he decides to bring with them a talented striker Vinny (Micheal Ward, Empire of Light, The Book of Clarence), who could give them a real chance at winning, but only if he’s ready to let go of his past and become part of the team. Made with the support of the Homeless World Cup, The Beautiful Game is a film of second chances – where homeless teams from around the world find that all roads lead to Rome, and everything’s to play for.”

Along with Nighy and Ward, The Beautiful Game also stars Susan Wokoma, Callum Scott Howells, Kit Young, Sheyi Cole, Tom Vaughan-Lawlor, Robin Nazari, Aoi Okuyama, Cristina Rodlo, Tadashi Watanabe, Kazuhiro Muroyama, and Valeria Golino.

Frank Cottrell Boyce wrote the script for The Beautiful Game. The movie is produced by Graham Broadbent, Pete Czernin, Ben Knight, and Colin Farrell, while Diarmuid McKeown, Claudine Farrell, Ollie Madden, and Daniel Battsek serve as executive producers.

Prior to The Beautiful Game, Sharrock directed 2016’s Me Before You, 2020’s The One and Only Ivan, and 2023’s Wicked Little Letters.

The Beautiful Game releases on Netflix on March 29, 2024.
