Beckham has appeared as himself
in adverts and
documentaries | |
Footballer David Beckham will take his first major
acting role in movie Goal!, in which he will play himself.
Directed by Judge Dredd film-maker Danny Cannon, Goal! is due to be
released in August 2005 as part of a ￡100m film trilogy.
"I want to be involved in youth coaching when I finally hang up my
boots," Beckham said.
"I believe that the Goal! trilogy will provide a positive message to
kids around the world."
The England captain previously played himself in numerous television
adverts, and has appeared in football documentary films.
Goal! will also feature appearances by Manchester United player Wayne
Rooney, Newcastle United's Alan Shearer and Beckham's fellow Real Madrid
players Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane.
The trilogy will follow a Los Angeles footballer, played by Y Tu Mama
Tambien star Diego Luna, as his career takes him to Real Madrid via
Newcastle United.
Co-produced by Milkshake Films, the final instalment was planned to hit cinema
screens in time for the 2006 World Cup.
Cannon joined the project after Nine Songs director Michael
Winterbottom quit in June due to "creative differences".
He had already shot some early material for the film, including footage
from Newcastle's 3-0 Uefa Cup win against Spanish side Real Mallorca.
Beckham, 29, said he believed that Goal! would "help market the game
and develop its appeal and fan base in emerging markets like America and
Asia".
"I am only too happy to help that process," he added.

足球運(yùn)動員大衛(wèi)·貝克漢姆將首次在一部名叫《進(jìn)球！》的電影中出演主角，在影片中他將扮演他自己。
由影片《特警判官》的制片人丹尼·坎農(nóng)執(zhí)導(dǎo)的《進(jìn)球！》是（計(jì)劃投資）一億英鎊的電影三部曲中的一部，預(yù)計(jì)將于2005年8月發(fā)行。
貝克漢姆說：“掛靴后，我希望能從事青少年（足球）教練的工作�！�
“我相信《進(jìn)球！》三部曲會向世界各地的孩子們傳遞積極的信息。”
這位英國國家足球隊(duì)隊(duì)長曾經(jīng)在許多電視廣告中扮演自己，還在一些足球紀(jì)錄片中露面。
