I just found out that they're making a tv show which is a prequel to the film Sexy Beast.

The show will be the origin story of the main characters in the film. Meant to be out in October.

I hope it's good.

Having recently watched the series ' Town Called Malice ' the first film which came to mind was The Business .

I'll try to add some that haven't been mentioned so far -

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067952/ - possibly based on The Krays ?

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066214/- saw this at Theatre Gwynedd , Bangor back in the day - didn't like it at the time .

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2076897/


edit - bummer , thought the little imdb boxes would show revealing the film .

They are in order -

Villain - 1971 - Richard Burton

Performance - 1970 - James Fox , Mick Jagger .

My Brother The Devil - 2012 -James Floyd , Fady Elsayed
