The Mean Machine

My new film which opens Boxing day sees me star in the Burt Reynolds role in a remake of the hit sports comedy The Longest Yard.
The film, now called The Mean Machine, is well tailored for me, it's set in Britain.
I play a former soccer star sent to prison. I agree to organize a soccer match between the inmates and guards.




2568 prisoners locked up 23 hours a day, 7 days a week. The only escape ...45 minutes each way.

When filming 'The Mean Machine', I was asked if I could supply some props to adorn the set that was going to be my new house. This, the producers felt, would give the room a more authentic feel.

What we've done is given you the opportunity to have a sneak preview of the room, and what is in it. If you hunt around the page, you might find some of the things in the film that are from my house.

They are all from some very important times in my life, including Wimbledon, Snatch, Gone in 60 Seconds, This is your life, and many many more.
