Prime Video adds sequel to The Football Factory starring Danny Dyer

After its cinema release last March, the movie has landed on streaming.

Described as being "set in the irreverent and profane world of cult classic The Football Factory", the 2025 movie follows Jack Jones (Dyer), an ageing, drug-taking football hooligan who feels increasingly irrelevant in today’s society as he struggles to keep his family together.

"Hooked on drugs and adrenaline, and struggling to resist the pull of his firm of fellow football fans, Jack is arrested after some violent matchday exploits and given six weeks to turn his life around, or else face a long spell in prison," the plot synopsis reads.

"Juggling his marriage, his mates, his hard-nut bully of a father-in-law, and his unhinged 25-year-old brother-in-law, Jack tries to get his life back on track, but his world slowly starts to spiral out of control.

"Can Jack overcome his inner demons, or is he heading for jail?"

As well as The Football Factory, Dyer and Love previously collaborated on another cult classic, 2005 gangster flick The Business. They also made the films Goodbye Charlie Bright and Outlaw together.

Their latest movie also co-stars Geoff Bell (MobLand) and Stephanie Leonidas (Snatch).

JOE was quite mixed on Marching Powder when we reviewed it for its cinema release last March.

We said at the time:

"Though Dyer is playing a version of his always watchable, comedic, geezery self, it’s hard to escape the feeling that Marching Powder might have worked better as a drama.

"That’s because the most successful parts of the movie are its more serious moments, examining what might have happened to Dyer’s Football Factory hooligan if he continued the drugs and the fighting into his ’40s and also how such behaviour has become less prevalent and accepted in modern UK society.

"Too often, however, Love’s bombastic direction – filled with animation, flashy title cards, fourth-wall breaks and narration – and his screenplay’s crass and crude humour feel at odds with this central story, undercutting its brief moments of actual emotion and sincerity with snark."
