The original cast of ‘The Full Monty’ are getting back together, 25 years later, to film a new TV series for Disney+.
TV & Movies But will they leave their hats on? Few might’ve expected The Full Monty to become a hit in 1997. The story of six unemployed former steelworkers in Sheffield who form a strip troupe in order to raise money was a surprise box office smash hit, and ended up bagging four Oscar nominations. Now,25 years later, Disney+ have begun work on a new eight-part TV sequel, starring the original cast and creators. Rather than introducing a new generation of male strippers, the new reboot will instead bring us up to date with the journeys of The Full Monty line-up since their infamous nude rendition of “You Can Leave Your Hat On” closed the film.
