EastEnders: Upcoming Flick Keeps Danny On His Toes!
Danny is busy shooting for his latest gig, “Marching Powder, ” a euphemism for the celebrity-loved show. The EastEnders star wore a blue bomber jacket, a Burberry House Check shirt worth £550, and jeans. Moreover, he was chilling outside an Italian restaurant, sharing the scene with a homeless buddy.
The 46-year-old EastEnders actor is reprising his role as Chelsea hooligan Tommy Johnson. And let us tell you that he looked very downtrodden as he clutched a bunch of daffodils. In addition, The Sun previously reported that the production of a sequel to the 2004 hit film Football Factory was underway.
A source told them, “The hope is they can turn it around quickly enough so it comes out in 2024.” It will drop just in time for the original’s 20th anniversary. Marching Powder is all set to deal with the aftermath of the conflicts between rival hooligan factions. The storyline picks up right after the end of the last film.
Furthermore, they revealed that the EastEnders celeb was really buzzing. “It’s a real passion project for Danny, who can’t wait to get his teeth back into the role,” they said. As evidenced by sightings, the former soap star has been putting in the work. He was spotted wearing knee guards and a padded jacket under a trench coat.
Additionally, a witness revealed that Dan still had that menacing vibe going strong despite the passage of twenty years. Moreover, in another sighting, he sported a grazed forehead as he puffed a cigarette. The Scuff marks around his eye and nose indicate that he never left the battlefield. We can’t wait to catch him onscreen!
