David Beckham is set to make his Hollywood debut in Guy Ritchie's upcoming film 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E', it has been revealed.
The 38-year-old former footballer was approached by the director for the speaking part, the Mirror reported.
Beckham, who has been tipped to act since he retired from football in May, filmed the scenes in London's South Kensington.
A source has revealed that the footy ace was "extremely nervous", as he prepared for his new career.
The insider added that Ritchie was delighted to get to Beckham before Matthew Vaughan, who is rumored to cast the footballer in his upcoming film 'The Secret Service'.
Rumours are rife that Beckham will do 'The Secret Service' at a later date.
