It will follow the story of the original brothers as they navigate the city of Sheffield.<\/p>\n<p>Simon Beaufoy, Creator, Writer, Executive Producer said: \u201cWe\u2019re chuffed to bits to get all the Monty Men back together again \u2013 now with a chaotic entourage of children, grandchildren, pets and assorted hangers-on \u2013 to see what life in Sheffield is like twenty-five years on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new series will be comprised of many of the original cast members, including Robert Carlyle, Mark Addy, Lesley Sharp, Steve Huison, Paul Barber, Tom Wilkinson and Hugo Speer.<\/p>\n<p>Lee Mason, Director of Scripted Content said: \u201cTwenty-five years\u00a0ago Simon introduced us to a group of funny, fearless and resilient unemployed\u00a0working-class men from Sheffield and the world fell in love with them. We\u2019re\u00a0delighted to reunite the original cast for this brand-new series on Disney+ to catch up\u00a0with these iconic characters and what they\u2019ve been up to since we last saw them on\u00a0stage in all their glory, and we can\u2019t wait to introduce a host of exciting new faces\u00a0and characters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sheffield Wire spoke to people around the city centre for their response to the news. There was a mixture of responses, some having heard of the new series, some not.<\/p>\n<p>One Sheffield resident said: &#8220;I was in Sheffield when it was being filmed, I was actually in Los Angeles when it was the Oscars, it was actually up for an Oscar. And of course the rival film was Titanic that year. It was quite amusing a film from Sheffield being up against a blockbuster. I worked out where most of these scenes were filmed, I thought it would be an interesting challenge to have a run around all of them&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning Disney+ announced a brand new series, The Full Monty, from the makers of the original hit comedy film.
