In Doctor Who: The Writer’s Tale: The Final Chapter, in an email from Russell T Davies to Benjamin Cook in 2008 the former informed the latter that Noel Clarke would not be available to reprise his role as Mickey in Torchwood: Children of Earth as he had been cast in a Michael Winterbottom film but did not revealed the name of the film possibly because Davies didn’t know its name.
Out of curiously I went to IMDb to find out the name of the movie that made Clarke to miss out on Children of Earth but the filmographies of Clarke and Winterbottom did not correlate any such film.
I then found out the name of the movie from this site:
uk.linkedin.com/pub/jermaine-curtis-liburd/17/610/898
The name of the movie was called A Beautiful Game but it was never made due to lack of film funding.
This means that Clarke had missed out on Children of Earth for a movie that never got made. It means in retrospect Clarke could have been in Children of Earth if he had known that A Beautiful Game was not going to be made!
