Beckham chasing Pink Panther role
Saturday March 27, 2004

David Beckham seems set to make the step up to Hollywood.
 
David Beckham is in talks to appear in MGM's remake of The Pink Panther starring Steve Martin as the inimitable Inspector Clouseau.
This would be the first feature film performance for Becks, whose name was immortalised in Gurinder Chadha's comedy drama Bend It Like Beckam. He appeared in that film but only through archive footage.

However lest sports fans fear the nation's talismanic captain is about to hang up his boots and walk away from the beautiful game in favour of Hollywood's shining allure they needn't worry.

The Hollywood Reporter says once a potential scheduling conflict is smoothed over the former Manchester Utd star could play a cameo role as a football player - so no great stretch there then.

The movie's plot centres on an investigation into the murder of a football manager and the theft of one of the celebrated eponymous diamonds. Kevin Kline, Beyonce and Jean Reno also star and the project is due to start filming in May for release in July 2005.
