Fans of The Full Monty are in for some comforting nostalgia as the trailer for the new series has been released.

The original cast of the beloved 1997 film have reunited for the sequel series which takes place 25 years after the movie and follows the gang as they continue to navigate the post-industrial city of Sheffield.

Written by the film’s screenwriter Simon Beaufoy, the show charts what happened to the group after they put their kit back on. 

Robert Carlyle’s character Gaz will deal with fatherhood as he is seen trying to connect with his daughter in the trailer.

The pair are seen sat together on a hill as he tells her: ‘We haven’t seen that much of each other in a while, maybe make up for lost time, eh?’

Gaz also comes to blows with Dave (Mark Eddy) after he criticises him for being an absent father.

Gaz tells him: ‘Who the hell are you to give out parenting advice eh? You don’t even have any kids.’

It’s also hinted the gang may be getting their kit off once more as Gaz is heard saying in voiceover: ‘This is going to be the greatest comeback’. 

The Full Monty was released in 1997 to critical acclaim. For a time it was the highest grossing film in the UK until it was later outsold by Titanic.

The film follows a group of unemployed men in Sheffield during the 1990s as they decide to form a male striptease act in an attempt to make some money.

The episodes will explore the brighter, sillier and more humane way forward where communal effort can still triumph over adversity. 

The show is directed by Andrew Chaplin and Catherine Morshead, and co-written by Alice Nutter with Simon Lewis as Series Producer. 

One actor who won’t be returning is Hugo Speer who was axed from the show after he allegedly invited a woman into his trailer while completely naked during filming.

The actor, who played Guy in the film, had his contract terminated with ‘immediate’ effect after allegedly gesturing a runner in her twenties to enter his trailer while he had no clothes on, according to The Sun.

He has denied the claims, with his spokesperson telling ET: ‘Hugo denies all the allegations and is challenging all of them.’

The Sun reported that the horrified woman reported Hugo’s actions to show bosses, who took immediate action.

It is said that Hugo had been previously warned about walking around his trailer while stark naked before he eventually got the axe after allegedly inviting in a woman.

A Disney+ representative told MailOnline: ‘Recently, we were made aware of allegations of inappropriate conduct by Hugo Speer on the set of a commissioned production. As is policy, an investigation was launched. 

‘Upon its completion, the decision was made to terminate his contract, with immediate effect.’

The Full Monty will be released on DIsney+ on June 14.
