Beckham enters The Gentlemen’s stylish beer showdown

8/29 @ 2:04am by Morten Nielsen

David Beckham has joined Theo James for a new Stella Artois campaign inspired by Netflix drama The Gentlemen

In the film, James’s character Eddie Horniman uses a freshly poured pint to outmanoeuvre the former footballer in a tongue-in-cheek auction scene

The partnership arrives as speculation continues over whether Meghan Markle could appear in the show’s third series

Reports suggest the Duchess of Sussex was among ideas discussed by creator Guy Ritchie, although no formal casting decision has been made

Scripts remain in development, leaving the door open for a surprise royal cameo.
