Danny Dyer reveals his legendary Brit movie is getting a sequel – 25 YEARS after original film

DANNY Dyer has raised hopes he will reprise his role in the classic club culture film that changed his life - by starring in a sequel to 1999's controversial movie Human Traffic.

The actor said that making a 'Human Traffic II' would be great news for the "old ravers out there".

Danny made his film debut playing dealer Moff in the controversial coming-of-age drama.

It followed five friends as they dealt with their relationships and personal demons during a weekend of partying.

Fans of the original have always hoped for a follow-up.

And Justin Kerrigan, the original's writer and director, said he spent five years in protracted legal arguments about making one before the attempts floundered a few years ago.

One of the producers, Allan Niblo, said a script was written but it was unsuccessful in securing finance.

But now Danny has said: "Who knows, ladies and gentlemen, for you old ravers out there – and I know you're out there, you old druggies – there might be a Human Traffic II.

“Yeah, ‘99 it came out, and then it did change my life for the better.

“You know, all of a sudden, I could prove that I could be in a film, and I could prove that I could sort of be a semi-lead role.

And I had the best character in it, the most hedonistic.”

Speaking on his podcast ', Danny said even the first film was mired in problems - forcing him to work on building sites to make ends meet during delays.

He added: "It took two years to come out. The reason it took so long is because it was very controversial. It was a film about hedonism and people taking drugs.

“So while I was waiting for that to come out, I had to go back to the temping agency, and I was a lift operator, pushing buttons in a lift.

“I think I'd mentioned to someone ‘This ain't really my job, I've got a film coming out'. And they laughed in my face - ‘Yeah, course you have, mate'

"How f****** wrong was they?”

The film was to launch Danny into an acting career that has lasted 30 years and seen him star in The Football Factory, EastEnders and most recently Rivals.

Talking about Human Traffic, he added: “I went to a premiere and I was like ‘Wow!’ And it did really well. It did really well.

"People really got it, it really captured that last year of the ‘90s, because the ‘90s is such a mad decade anyway, and it really captured that f****** spirit, that energy.

“I'm really proud of that film, you know?”

Prior to the film, Danny appeared in the third series of Prime Suspect in 1993, but he said he quickly blew a large chunk of that first pay cheque.

He said: “I got £1,500 for that, and I felt so rich, you know? I bought everyone a kebab.

"I remember that, up Prince Regent’s Lane. I bought myself some Nike Air Max, because I’d always had hand-me-downs.”
