Tom Cruise has got a seriously hot friend, and you know how the saying goes…”Friends help hot friends get Hollywood movie careers”…or something like that.
So that’s exactly what ageless-mega-movie-action-star Tom Cruise is doing for his good pal, David Beckham! At least that’s what Perez Hilton is saying.
Becks may have hung up his soccer jersey for good, but I think everyone would agree with me when I say that we can’t let Becks retire his pecks! No no no no no! Someone that good-looking is just destined for Hollywood! And let’s face it…someone with a wife that fashionably fabulous is just destined for an infinite amount of red carpet movie premieres. Hollywood here they come! But how will the Beckhams get there?
The answer lies in Tom Cruise. His mission, should he choose to accept it, is to land David Beckham a Hollywood career. In fact, Perez claims a source close to Tom and David is saying that “David has always wanted to be an action film star, and Tom promised him a long time ago he can make those dreams come true. David still loves soccer but feels that now is a great time to transition into film while he’s still young enough to land top-notch roles.”
And who better to help Becks transition into action-hood than the king of action-packed flicks himself, Mr. Tom Cruise? The source is even saying that David wants in on Cruise’s next Mission: Impossible film!

Whoooaaaa there Mr. I-Get-Injured-Nearly-Every-Soccer-Season. Shouldn’t you kind of ease into the whole action film thing? I mean, you may be younger than Tom but you can’t get on his level until you’ve at least scaled the side of a cliff and dangled there for a terrifying couple of minutes. And that was just the opening scene of Mission: Impossible 2! Tommy Boy was just warming up!
Oh Becks, you’re gonna need some training! Years of kicking around a soccer ball just won’t cut it, I’m afraid. But at least you’ll have the best of the best coaching you and helping you along the way! Tom strikes me as a man of his word and if he’s promised David a film career, by golly he’ll get him one!
Tom and Becks have been buds for a couple of years…Victoria and Tom’s ex-wife, Katie Holmes, used to hang out all the time…and once the Beckhams moved to the States, they became even closer. Now that Becks is retired and a free agent, he’s hoping Tom will help him play an agent!
We know Beckham’s modeling skills are waaaay above average, but can he actually act?Who the hell cares?! Throw him in front of the camera, take off his shirt, have him run around a bit and presto! You’ve got a blockbuster hit on your hands!
There may be something to this Cruise and Becks pairing after all.
What do you guys think? Can David make it as a movie star?
