Channel 4 announces new documentary Football’s Coming Out
The digital documentary will explore why there are still barriers for top footballers being openly LGBTQ+, with many Premier League football players often experiencing numerous challenges if they come out publicly.
Produced by Bullion Productions, the documentary will show the pressure players face if they decide to come out and the reaction that invokes from other players, fans, press, social media and financial donors.
Archive footage will be used to show what previously happened in historical case studies and how that has changed over time.
