Justin Bieber's Believe far exceeded expectations when the child star turned his pop career into a big screen success story in 2011.

So the 21-year-old was there to cheer on Ed Sheeran as he prepared to do the same thing with his debut concert film Jumpers For Goalposts.

Premiering the film in London's Leicester Square on Thursday night, Ed, 24, enjoyed some playful banter when his US counterpart made a surprise appearance on the 'Ed carpet.'

The goalposts just keep getting wider for international pop sensation Ed who looked chuffed to see his life be transformed for the big screen.

This weekend, Ed will appear in cinemas nationwide with a film that offers fans a 'birds-eye view' of life on tour for the musician.

It didn't seem to phase Ed on his big night because he was characteristically scruffy, adding some of his dressed down touches to the ensemble, forgoing smart shoes in favour of trainers and leaving his tie just slightly loosely knotted.

Ed left his signature red tresses messy on top and stayed faithful to his unshaven appearance for the memorable moment of glory.

And describing the treat in store for his multitude of fans, he added: '(Fans will) get to see a bit more of everyone in my teams, who worked so hard to make it happen too. And me in various states of hangover as well!'
