Chris Kamara is to join the long and illustrious list of footballers to try their hand at acting.The former Sheffield United star, who has become a national treasure thanks to his punditry skills, is set to make his debut in an episode of Emmerdale at the end of June.

getty11Eric Cantona – Looking for Eric
On paper, there are few better footballers equipped to cross over into the world of acting than ‘The King’. Surly, enigmatic and ridiculously talented, the Frenchman has all the attributes to thrive in front of the camera.During his suspension in 1995 for kung-fu kicking a fan at Selhurst Park, Cantona starred in a French film called ‘Le bonheur est dans le pr’as a rugby player.But it was in the 2009 classic ‘Looking for Eric‘ where his acting credentials came to the fore. A film about the escape football can bring from the trials and tribulations, the 53-play-old plays himself and was well-received earning an 85 per cent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
getty11Fitz Hall – Fifth Element
Before making his name as a defender for Crystal Palace and Watford, Hall had a brief cameo appearance in ‘Fifth Element‘.An English-language French science fiction film, it starred Bruce Willis and Milla Jovovich and focused on the Hollywood legends trying to save planet earth.The Leytonstone-native appeared briefly in the start of the film, but is fondly remembered for having one of the best nicknames in football; ‘One Size’.
11Ally McCoist – A Shot at Glory
talkSPORT’s very own Ally McCoist also has starred on screen, alongside Michael Keaton and Robert Duvall no less.McCoist played Jackie McQuillan, a striker signed from Arsenal by fictional Scottishfootball club Kilnockie FC, based on a North of Scotland Highland Football League club who are managed by Gordon McLeod (Duvall).While Duvall’s Scottish accent is perhaps the highlight of the film, watching Kilnockie try and win the Scottish Cup Final against Rangers is definitely worth the watch.
getty11Frank Leboeuf – The Theory of Everything
Famed for his career with Chelsea and 1998 World Cup win with France, Leboeuf moved to Los Angeles following his retirement in 2005.The cultured centre-back played for amateur team Hollywood United, and was desperate to get into acting.Leboeuf studied at theLee Strasberg Institutein West Hollywood, and was paid just $100 for his first role. He kept the cheque as a memento.His finest work came in the Stephen Hawking biopic, ‘The Theory of Everything‘, where he played the doctor who performed a tracheostomy operation.
getty11Vinnie Jones – Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Another talkSPORT regular, Jones capitalised on his tough-man image and has appeared in a number of Hollywood films. The ‘Crazy Gang’ member was by no means unsuccessful on the pitch, but his exploits on camera have made him a global star.In 1999, he appeared in Guy Ritchie’s ‘Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels‘ and followed that up with an appearance as Bullet-Tooth Tony in ‘Snatch‘.But his big break came in ‘Gone in 60 Seconds‘ where, despite having one line of dialogue, he earned another major role alongside John Travolta in ‘Swordfish‘.He also appeared as Juggernaut in X-Men: The Last Stand.
getty11Zinedine Zidane – Goal
An absolute cult classic with fans across the glove, ‘Goal‘ follows the story of Santiago Munez from the slums of Mexico, to a gardening job in California, to playing for Newcastle United.Along the way, the young striker bumps into Raul and Zidane at a bar after a game. While the French maestro only has a brief cameo, his superstar quality has the desired affect on the starstruck Magpies forward.The Real Madrid boss has also appeared in ‘Asterix at the Olympic Games‘, but the film was largely panned…
11David Beckham – King Arthur: Legend of the Sword
Like Zidane, Beckham appeared in ‘Goal’ and even managed to make it into the sequel. But his good looks and global appeal mean he has featured in multiple productions.A close friend of Guy Ritchie, the former England captain made a cameo in ‘The Man from U.N.C.L.E’ having already appeared in several commercials for sponsors such as Pepsi.But it was his appearance in another Ritchie-directed film, ‘King Arthur: Legend of the Sword’ which had critics talking.In their review, Empirecall the cameo a misguided, fist-biter of a performance almost impressive when you consider it features a man whos actually from Leytonstone playing an unconvincing Cockney and the fact that this piece of stunt casting overshadows a hugely significant character moment for Arthur bespeaks the films pervading ill-judged, shouty feel.Bobby Moore and Pele – Escape to Victory
‘Escape to Victory‘ is a bit like ‘The Great Escape‘ but, instead of Steve McQueen and James Garner, it’s Michael Caine and Pele who take the lead roles.And, instead of focusing on historical accuracy, the film revolves around a team of Allied footballers trying to escape a German POW camp during a friendly game.With Sylvester Stallone in goal, the Allied team managed to scrape a draw and escape from their captor’s clutches.Watch out for other footballers in the film, including John Wark, Osvaldo Ardiles, Kazimierz Deyna, Mike Summerbee, and Russell Osman.
getty11Ian Wright – Gun of the Black Sun
The former Crystal Palace and England striker may not have chosen the greatest film to make his debut in, but he earned rave reviews regardless.The film deals with a range of complex issues including crime, violence, neo-Nazism and the abuse of music and digital technology to resurrect and rule an Aryan race.One review on IMDb states: Gary [Douglas] has also been very shrewd in his casting of Ian Wright, the ex-footballer and TV presenter, as Duke, a role he carries off surprisingly well and is clearly leagues ahead of Vinnie Jones in the acting stakes.
getty11Stan Collymore – Basic Instinct 2
Unbelievably, they did in fact make a sequel to the 1992 film, 14 years after Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone electrified audiences across the globe. Sadly, as with most sequels, the film flattered to deceive and was panned – receiving a 4.3/10 on IMDb.However, Stone heaped praise on the former Liverpool and Aston Villa striker for saving her life when a stunt went wrong. The actress got her stiletto stuck in the floor as she tried to escape a submerged car.She said: “Working with Stan was so extraordinary. He is the loveliest, most chivalrous, most charming and most professional person. And because of that, when this incident happened I felt really confident that we would get out of it. I’ve done a lot of stunts in movies and I have never done anything that was as difficult or demanding as this sequence.”
