After years on the football field, David Beckham has been making steps towards starting an acting career.

And as he premiered his new starring role in a short film for fashion brand Belstaff, David Beckham decided to play it simple in his signature fitted T-shirt and jeans look.

The father-of-four went for a classic casual look as he attended the screening of Outlaws for Belstaff at La Bodega Negra restaurant in London's Soho.

The former England footballer was joined at the premiere by co-star Cathy Moriarty and director Geremy Jasper.

David has been the face of Belstaff for two years, after launching the brand's flagship store in Bond Street during London Fashion Week in September 2013.

He has previously created two capsule collections for the label and is now enjoying a starring role in their new short film.

Outlaws, shot on location in Mexico, was directed by Geremy Jasper and produced by Liv Tyler - who is dating David's best friend Dave Gardner.

It also stars Harvey Keitel, Inherent Vice star Katherine Waterston and Raging Bull's Cathy Moriarty.

The film is described as 'surreal film within a film starring The Stranger', a mysterious drifter and motorcycle stuntman, haunted by memories of a beautiful trapeze artist and hunted by a maniacal director seeking revenge.

David enthused: 'I always love to challenge myself. Filming Outlaws in the Mexican desert with Belstaff and the Legs team – not to mention working alongside Harvey, Cathy and Katherine – was an adventure I will never forget!'

Recently, David denied speculation he was being lined up to play James Bond, but admitted he was hoping to try out an acting career.

He told The Times: 'I am very aware that many sportsmen and other celebrities have turned their hand to acting and failed.

'I know that it is a tough profession, where you need a huge amount of skill and discipline, and I wouldn't want to push myself forward too soon, without learning more about it, and doing a lot more practice.

'But what I have done so far, I have loved. I can deal with most things. I am a well-known person, so I have got used to criticism.'

Outlaws for Belstaff will be released on 22 September.
