A NEW feature film about football hooligans is to be shot in Hull.
Former EastEnders actress Tamzin Outhwaite, who is currently starring in the popular BBC comedy-drama series New Tricks, has already been signed up for one of the leading roles.
Although set in London, the film will use Hull for most of its locations.
It will be a sequel to the 1995 film ID, which starred Reece Dinsdale, Sean Pertwee and the late Warren Clarke.
hat told the story of a police officer working undercover to infiltrate a group of hardcore football gangs.
The follow-up is believed to be scheduled for an eight-week shoot in Hull in March and is already in pre-production.
It will focus on a fast-rising Asian police officer who goes undercover to investigate a resurgent hooligan gang fired up by the takeover of fictional team Shadwell by a Russian oligarch and plans to build a new mosque next to the club's ground.
The film's screenplay has been penned by original ID writer Vincent O'Connell and will be directed by Joel Novoa.
Writing about the new film on his website, Mr O'Connell said: "I never thought I would go back to this but it felt like I had unfinished issues with the story.
"Writing again about football gangs made me realise how that environment has changed since the original ID was made, and also how my own relationship with football had changed. The sport has, in that time, become corporatised and the local community aspect of it has suffered as a result.
"It used to be a place where community congregated, but now it is a model of how to monetise emotion, community and loyalty.
"I enjoyed very much being able to address these issues, and the script is heavily imbued with that discordance and disillusion.
"It's also a great opportunity to tackle head-on some state of nation themes – but don't worry ID fans, it also has lots of fun and fights.
"My hope is that this will be the last football gang film ever – there really will be nothing more to say."
