5 footballers turned actors

#5 David Beckham

If there is any footballer out there who deserves a big screen career, then it’s none other than, David Beckham. The Manchester United legend is one of the well-known faces in the world of sports. Soon after tying the knot with a former Spice Girl, Victoria Beckham, David entered a world of glamour and glitz. The handsome footballer had lived in Los Angeles when he played for LA Galaxy and made quite some friends in Hollywood.

With a popular image and beautiful face like his, a debut in movies was not far away as he appeared as himself in ‘Goal’ trilogy. Beckham also made an appearance in the popular British sitcom ‘Only Fools and Horses, but the fact of the matter is he really doesn’t fancy himself as an actor describing himself as “too stiff” for the big screen.
