I Tried Finding the Worst Movie Footballers Act In

Football. Players. Can't. Act.
In this video, I watched and tried to find the worst movies that football players have actual acting roles in! Some incredible football players feature in this video. Some of the greatest football players of all time such as Pele and David Beckham and Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Eric Cantona! I then ranked and reviewed all of them and I awarded my own Oscars to the Footballers for the best Footballer Actor, the Worst Footballer Actor and the best overall Movie! Watch the video to see who won!
I found, watched and tested some movies such as Escape to Victory (1981), which stars Pele and has him play against the German team. I also watched more modern movies such as King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, which stars David Beckham, which was hilariously bad. Asterix and Obelix: The Middle Kingdom stars Zlatan Ibrahimovic as Antivirus and was also really funny. Finally, Eric Cantona was an amazing actor in AKA (2023).
This was such a funny and hilarious video to film. I loved making this and I hope you enjoy :)

DISCLAIMER: I should’ve mentioned the 1 Rule was that the football couldn’t be playing themselves! Also Zidane’s Asterix movie is literally unavailable in the UK. Anyway thanks for being patient with me for this one Kings🙏 :)

Vinnie Jones has a pretty legendary acting career. Premier League footballer to Lockstock & Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch, Xmen, Eurotrip, Gi Joe and Escape Plan. I think he would probably have to be considered the GOAT of Footballers turned actors.

It's either between him and Cantona. My favorite movies with Vinnie are definitely Guy Ritchie's Snatch and japanese flick Survive Style 5+, and he can play the part of the hot-headed brit, however Cantona is so good as himself in Ken Loach's "Looking for Eric".
