Victoria Beckham reveals the one handsome actor she’d love to play husband David
Victoria Beckham has declared that only Hollywood star Brad Pitt would be fit enough to play the role of her husband David in any future biopic.
While there are no concrete plans for a big-screen David Beckham film after the success of the 2023 Netflix documentary, the question was posed to Victoria on Saturday by Vogue editor Dame Anna Wintour.
The former Spice Girls singer, 50, and her ex-footballer husband, 49, tied the knot in 1999 and have four children – Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 19, and daughter Harper, nine.
Beckham, the docuseries directed by Fisher Stevens, was a huge success for the streaming platform – and Dame Anna, 74, was keen to find out from Victoria if the Beckhams now had their eye on a Hollywood movie.
She asked the Out of Your Mind singer, ‘When an actual feature film comes out on the Beckhams, not the documentary, what would be your ideal casting for you, Victoria?’
Victoria responded by asking Dame Anna for her opinion: ‘Goodness, I wasn’t expecting that question. I don’t know. Who do you think would be a good one?’
Dame Anna responded that a star of recent horror hit The Substance should play Victoria: ‘Well, I actually thought Margaret Qualley would be a good one, yes?’
The Conde Nast officer then turned her attention to the former Manchester United and Real Madrid player, prying: ‘And then what about David?’
Victoria was also surprised to receive this question, taking a moment before throwing out a huge name: ‘Oh my goodness, I don’t know. Oh my gosh, I wasn’t expecting this question. I mean, I don’t know, let’s say Brad Pitt.’
