Ahhh… now this is nice to see. A non-actor celebrity turning down a jump into a movie career… well… at least for now. Still, this is nice to see, and as a sports fan it’s also nice a see an athlete stay committed to his game. The good folks over at Digital Spy give us this:
[Beckham] refuses to let it get in the way of his football career, and intends to continue with that for as long as he can. Beckham said: “I was offered a part in the new Pink Panther film. But I had a lot of games that were coming up, so I decided not to do it because of them. It was quite a good part, apparently.
“There was Bend It Like Beckham. Then there’s a new movie called Goal that I’m involved in as it’s to do with (his sponsors) Adidas. “I’ve never said that I definitely want to go into movies. I’ve been offered a couple of things, but my football comes first. After that, we’ll have to wait and see.”
Look at that picture. Damn… even I’m attracted to the guy, and I’m as straight as Jerry Farwell.
