Michael Sheen talks to Prost about the Homeless World Cup


Michael Sheen is a lauded actor who has received multiple awards for his roles in productions such as Dirty Filthy Love, the Queen, Bright Young Things and Frost/Nixon.

Awarded an OBE in 2009, he is the honorary President of Wales Council for Voluntary Action (WCVA).

Sheen is also a keen football player and has taken part in a number of charity football matches, most notably as captain of the Rest of the World side against an England team led by Robbie Williams at Soccer Aid 2010 at Wembley Stadium.

As Cardiff, the capital of Wales, gears up to host the Homeless World Cup 2019, Sheen spoke to Prost International’s Tim Hartley about how this year’s Homeless World Cup in Cardiff will help change lives and attitudes.

He also talks about losing the stigma of homelessness, of raising the players’ confidence as well as why he missed a trial for Arsenal and what it’s like playing with Zinedine Zidane.
