The Beautiful Game trailer sees Bill Nighy lead England to the Homeless World Cup

March 1, 2024 by Gary Collinson

Netflix has released a trailer and poster for The Beautiful Game, a new British film drama from director Thea Sharrock (Me Before You, Wicked Little Letters) and starring Bill Nighy as the manager of a team of homeless footballers representing England at the Homeless World Cup.

Starring alongside Bill Nighy are Micheal Ward, 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. Watch the trailer below…

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.

The Beautiful Game will release in UK cinemas on March 22nd and come sot Netflix worldwide on March 29th.
