Football star David Beckham said on Monday that he turned down a "good part" in MGM's The Pink Panther, starring Steve Martin, Kevin Kline, Beyoncé Knowles, Jean Reno, Emily Mortimer, Kristin Chenoweth, and Henry Czerny.
"I've never said that I wanted to go into movies. I've been offered a couple of things like 'The Pink Panther,' but my football comes first," said the Real Madrid midfielder, referring to a role in a remake of the Peter Sellers classic.
The movie revolves around the murder of a football coach.
Beckham has, however, signed up for the movie Goal!, details of which can be found here.
