An award-winning film set in Glasgow will have a sequel.
"In the downtime from filming, you start to wonder to yourself - how is Stevie, my character, getting on, what will he have been up to?
"I got to thinking about significant characters I had played over the years and I started to ponder what Lex would have been up to, so I emailed Gillies and Billy to ask them and here we are!” Original director Gillies MacKinnon is on board along with his brother, scriptwriter Billy MacKinnon, who is tackling the first draft of the script of the project.Gillies said: “Smile is not Small Faces 2, it is a different film, with a different tone and in a different era, but based upon the drama left off a quarter of a century earlier.
"This is a self-contained film and the viewer need not have seen the original to enjoy Smile as a film in its own right.“Iain‘s character, Lex was a wee boy who felt responsible for his own brother’s murder on a Glasgow ice rink. "Now, turning 40, Lex is suddenly faced with his dead brother’s resurrection, as a ghost, an apparition, or a reality, he can’t know, but one thing is beyond question – Bobby, played by Stephen Duffy, has returned from the dead!”Stephen - who became lifelong friends with Iain after meeting on the set of the film - is intrigued to see his character return, as is Kevin McKidd as both of their characters died in Small Faces.
