Cristiano Ronaldo is again being tipped for a move into Hollywood when his playing days end, with Giuseppe Rossi even suggesting the Al-Nassr forward could play the Joker in a future Batman film.
Ronaldo, 40, has given no hint of retiring and many expect him to continue beyond his Al-Nassr deal, which runs to 2027 in the Saudi Pro League.
Giuseppe Rossi said: “He’s made for LA, man. He’d be perfect for LA. I think he has the aura. He would definitely be the villain in something. Let’s make him the Joker in the next Batman maybe?” He told OLBG.
The Portuguese superstar has already dipped a toe into the industry, with a cameo lined up in the next Fast & Furious blockbuster. Other post-football avenues, including potential club ownership, have also been discussed.
Emmanuel Petit added: “Could Cristiano Ronaldo end up being a huge movie star? Definitely. I’m happy for Ronaldo. I think he has the charisma and the aura. The Oscars? One day.” He told Hochgepokert.
