Iwan Rheon has admitted that he was disappointed to see the planned 'Misfits' movie scrapped.

Antonia Thomas recently confirmed that a mooted film spin-off from the E4 series is no longer happening, reported Digital Spy.

"It looked like it was really going to happen at one stage, but it's gone away now," Rheon, who played Simon on the show, said.

"I don't know exactly why or what's going on."



'Misfits' creator Howard Overman first revealed that he was working on a movie version in 2012, hinting at appearances from both Rheon's character and Thomas's Alisha.

"It would've been nice to do for old time's sake. It's been a while now since we did it and it would've been nice to work with the old cast again," Rheon said.

'Rheon' departed 'Misfits' after three series in 2011 - the series itself ended after a further two series in 2013.
