About that, why the ex-football player needs an acting career, David told the edition of the Times, saying these words:

"Many of my colleagues tried to act in films, and, unfortunately, these attempts were unsuccessful. I do not want to repeat this experience. That's why I try not to advertise my activities in the film industry. It seems to me that it's too early to say that I'm an actor. To become a real expert in this field, one must have many skills and practices. That's what I'm currently doing. However, I can say that I really like acting. I am pleased with my work in the cinema and I think that I should continue. Despite the fact that I now have only two roles, I was faced with the fact that I got a lot of critical reviews in my address. But I can assure everyone that I'm not used to it. I can handle it. "

Richie helps me to master the profession

The work in the movie interests David for a long time. This ex-footballer has repeatedly told in his interviews.

About how David was preparing for the shootings in the historical drama, he told in his last interview:

"Before I came to the set, I studied the script for a long time and watched acting lessons. I want to say a big thank you to Guy, because without him I do not know what to do. Richie helps me to master the profession: he rehearses with me and tells me how I should behave in front of the camera. It's hard for me to say how long it took to rehearse, but I know for sure that for about a month Richie came to my house and checked how the preparations for the shoot are going. Every day he dedicated to me the hour of his time. "
