A Wing & a Prayer

2024

In development

The amazing, almost true story of (possibly) the greatest footballer of all time, a duck called Puskas, a man called Syd, and the most thrilling FA Cup final ever.

The film shows how a duck changed footballing history. But also how football, friendship and community can help overcome loss, heartbreak and pain. By which we don’t just mean losing 2 Cup Finals in the row. It’s an exploration of male bonding, love and pride, and a much neededdemonstration of how exuberance and passion can make a difference even in challenging times.

In the tradition of BILLY ELLIOT, THE FULL MONTY and THE BANK of DAVE, A Wing and a Prayer is an uplifting comedy, a rich nostalgic journey of eccentric characters, incident and adventure, celebrating the triumph of a group of pals, a community and a duck.
