Romper Stomper to get a TV sequel

August 1, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Australian streaming service Stan has announced that it is developing a six-part TV sequel to the cult 1992 film Romper Stomper, which starred Russell Crowe as the leader of a group of violent neo-Nazi extremists.

Romper Stomper will be directed by Geoffrey Wright, who helmed the original film, as well as Daina Reid (Never Tear us Apart: The Untold Story of INXS) and James Napier Robertson (The Dark Horse), and is described as “a high stakes crime drama/political thriller that explores the human face of extremism” and “a timely revisiting of issues as today’s world confronts the politics of hate and hard-right populism.”

“Romper Stomper will be unmissable television, as provocative now as the film was in 1992, examining at a personal level the hatred, fear, vengeance and politics hidden in plain sight all around us,” said Nick Forward, chief content officer at Stan.

The series will see Jacqueline McKenzie and Dan Wyllie reprising their roles from the original film alongside Lachy Hulme (Power Games: The Packer-Murdoch Story), Sophie Lowe (The Beautiful Lie), David Wenham (Top of the Lake) and Toby Wallace (Boys In The Trees).
