<p><strong><a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/tag/cristiano-ronaldo/">Cristiano Ronaldo</a></strong> has never been short of ambition beyond the pitch, and as his playing career continues to defy age, the Portuguese icon now appears to be edging toward an entirely new arena. Meanwhile, <strong><a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/tag/lionel-messi/">Lionel Messi</a></strong> remains a constant point of comparison whenever soccer’s biggest names cross into popular culture. With Hollywood whispers growing louder, a provocative question has resurfaced:&nbsp;<strong>what happens when soccer superstardom meets the silver screen?</strong></p>



<p>That question gained new momentum after Vin Diesel dropped a tantalizing hint involving the Al-Nassr forward and one of cinema’s most lucrative franchises. The speculation began when&nbsp;<em>Fast &amp; Furious</em>&nbsp;star and creative force Vin Diesel shared a social media post featuring the Portuguese superstar, accompanied by a caption that instantly went viral.</p>



<p>Diesel confirmed that&nbsp;<strong>a role had been written specifically for Ronaldo within the Fast &amp; Furious universe</strong>, igniting excitement across both soccer and film communities. <em>“Everyone asked, would he be in the Fast mythology… I gotta tell you, he is a real one. We wrote a role for him…”</em>&nbsp;Diesel wrote, tagging the superstar directly. The timing of the revelation was striking. With&nbsp;<em>Fast &amp; Furious 11</em>&nbsp;expected to serve as the&nbsp;<strong>final chapter of the franchise</strong>, any new addition carries enormous symbolic weight.</p>



<p>The saga, which has generated billions at the global box office, is preparing for a climactic send-off — and Ronaldo’s potential involvement would be one of its <strong>boldest crossovers yet.</strong> According to Diesel, the idea of casting Ronaldo is not new. A role was initially conceived for&nbsp;<em>Los Bandoleros</em>, a 2009 short film that expanded the&nbsp;<em>Fast &amp; Furious</em>&nbsp;mythology. At the time, the forward was completing his world-record move from Manchester United to Real Madrid, a moment that made any Hollywood cameo logistically impossible.</p>

<p>What reignited speculation was Diesel’s&nbsp;<strong>subtle edit</strong>&nbsp;to his original post. The explicit reference to&nbsp;<em>Los Bandoleros</em>&nbsp;was later removed, leaving only the confirmation that a role had been written — without specifying when or where it might appear. That single change sparked widespread theories that&nbsp;<strong>Ronaldo’s cameo could instead materialize in the upcoming feature-length finale</strong>.</p>



<h2>Why Cristiano Ronaldo fits the Fast &amp; Furious universe</h2>



<p>Few athletes possess the global reach required to transcend sport and command mainstream cinematic attention. Cristiano Ronaldo does. With&nbsp;<strong>hundreds of millions of social media followers</strong>, unmatched brand recognition, and a carefully cultivated public persona, Ronaldo aligns perfectly with a franchise built on spectacle, physicality, and larger-than-life characters. His presence would not merely be a cameo; it would be a cultural event.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



<p>Importantly, Ronaldo has already begun laying the groundwork for a post-soccer career in entertainment. In April 2025, he launched&nbsp;<strong>UR•MARV</strong>, his own film studio, in partnership with acclaimed director Matthew Vaughn. <em>“This is an exciting chapter for me, as I look ahead to new ventures in business,”</em>&nbsp;Ronaldo said at the time, per&nbsp;<em>official statements released via X</em>. Vaughn was equally effusive, describing Ronaldo as&nbsp;<em>“a real-life superhero”</em>&nbsp;whose stories on the pitch rival scripted cinema.</p>



<h2>Has Lionel Messi ever appeared in a movie or TV series?</h2>



<p>While Cristiano Ronaldo appears poised to make his first true Hollywood leap, Lionel Messi has taken a very different path. The Argentine <strong>has appeared on screen</strong>, but almost exclusively&nbsp;<strong>as himself</strong>, and never in a traditional acting role. His most notable appearances include the documentary&nbsp;<em>Messi</em>&nbsp;(2014), directed by Álex de la Iglesia, and a cameo in the Argentine series&nbsp;<strong><em>Los Protectores</em>.</strong> He has also featured in soccer-centric documentaries and animated projects tied directly to his real-life story.</p>

</div></figure>



<p>What the 38-year-old has&nbsp;<strong>never done</strong>&nbsp;is play a fictional character in a mainstream movie or television series. This distinction reflects a broader contrast between the two icons: Ronaldo actively embraces media expansion, while Messi protects an image rooted almost entirely in soccer authenticity.</p>

<p>Lionel Messi is now setting his sights on a new arena—Hollywood. The Inter Miami captain has announced the launch of his own production company, <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/lionel-messi-production-company-525-rosario-1236004714/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">525 Rosario</a>. It is an ambitious entry into the entertainment industry. This move is seen as an extension of <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/messi-boosts-inter-miami-revenue-but-falls-short-of-man-united/">Messi</a>’s ever-growing empire. The company is poised to boost his already impressive net worth, estimated at <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/messi-inter-miami-revenue-2024-20230830-WST-453036.html">around $1.15 billion</a>.</p>



<p>The name 525 Rosario holds special significance for Messi, as it reflects his deep connection to his roots. The number 525 refers to the street number of Messi’s childhood home in Rosario, Argentina. It echoes Messi’s values of family and community that are central to the new venture. The production company aims to embody these attributes while also promoting innovation, teamwork, and diverse perspectives.</p>



<p>Messi’s foray into the entertainment world is a personal endeavor and a strategic move to extend his influence beyond the pitch. The venture is a collaboration with Smuggler Entertainment. Messi previously worked with this company on successful projects like the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/tv/apple-tv-market-share-overtakes-soccer-centric-competitor/">Apple TV+</a> docuseries “<a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/tv/messis-world-cup-on-apple-tv-recaptures-magic-of-triumph-20240219-WST-489894.html">Messi’s World Cup: The Rise of a Legend</a>” and “<a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/tv/messi-meets-america-review-a-fine-highlight-reel-with-little-depth-20231012-WST-461642.html">Messi Meets America</a>.” These projects, which showcased Messi’s journey and achievements, laid the groundwork for the establishment of 525 Rosario.</p>



<h2>Scope of 525 Rosario</h2>



<p>525 Rosario is a multi-faceted production company that will develop and produce a wide range of content. For example, there are premium television shows, films, live sports events, and community initiatives. Additionally, the company will create branded content and commercials not just for Messi, but for other prominent athletes worldwide. By branching into various forms of media, Messi aims to leverage his global fame to create content that resonates with audiences on an international scale.</p>



<p>In a statement about his new venture, Messi expressed his long-standing passion for entertainment, both on and off the field. “Entertainment has always been a passion for me, whether that be on the pitch or in other areas. I’m really motivated by the opportunity to pursue the project we created with Smuggler Entertainment and to expand it further to create content and experiences on a global scale through this new venture,” Messi said.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1200" height="675" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.worldsoccertalk.com/webp/full/WST_20240920_WST_530111_Messi-Hollywood-1200x675_bf440f80.webp&amp;width=1200&amp;height=675" alt="" class="wp-image-530180" srcset="https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/09/Messi-Hollywood-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/09/Messi-Hollywood-300x169.jpg 300w, https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/09/Messi-Hollywood-768x432.jpg 768w, https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/09/Messi-Hollywood-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/09/Messi-Hollywood.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px"></figure></figure>



<p>The production company will have dual headquarters in Miami. That’s where Messi currently resides with his family, and Los Angeles, the heart of the entertainment industry. By taking this strategic stance, the corporation hopes to improve its operations and partnerships in the international entertainment industry.</p>



<h2>Strategic partnership with Smuggler Entertainment</h2>



<p>Smuggler Entertainment, known for its innovative and high-quality content, will play a crucial role in the success of 525 Rosario. Tim Pastore, co-founder and CEO of Smuggler Entertainment, will serve as the chief executive officer of the new company. Pastore emphasized the alignment of values between Messi and the company. “This new venture aims to highlight and build upon everything Leo Messi stands for through not only massive premium content on a global scale but also community outreach and family-focused initiatives.”</p>



<p>The partnership with Smuggler Entertainment is a strategic move that positions 525 Rosario to not only produce captivating content but also engage in community outreach and philanthropic activities. This aligns with Messi’s desire to inspire and connect with people worldwide. He can use entertainment as a platform to advance social and cultural causes.</p>



<p>The Messi family’s statement encapsulated the broader vision of the company: “The goal remains to inspire and connect with people around the world in a completely new way, and we are looking forward to this venture. We would like to continue advancing in the entertainment sector, bringing new initiatives and productions with global reach through innovative storytelling, programming, and experiences.”</p>

Messi sets sights on Hollywood, debuts own production company

Lionel Messi is now setting his sights on a new arena—Hollywood, marking his ambitious entry into a production company.

<p>Will Ferrell, the iconic Hollywood actor from “Anchorman,” “Elf,” and “Step Brothers,” has a well-documented passion and support for soccer. His journey as a soccer enthusiast has seen him supporting various clubs across the globe; starting from <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/chelsea-tv-schedule/">Chelsea</a> in the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/watch-premier-league-on-us-tv-internet/">Premier League</a> to LAFC in <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/where-to-watch-mls-on-us-tv-and-internet/">Major League Soccer</a>. Even more recently, he has been associated with <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/wrexham-claims-it-sells-more-shirts-than-arsenal-in-usa-20240129-WST-486138.html">Wrexham</a> and <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/leeds-united-tv-schedule/">Leeds United</a>.</p>



<p>Ferrell’s support for Chelsea was more than a casual interest. Media have spotted him at Stamford Bridge, cheering on the Blues during key matches. Notably, he posed with John Terry before Chelsea’s 2009 pre-season friendly against Inter in California, wearing the 2004/05 home shirt. In 2012, Ferrell and fellow actor Zach Galifianakis met the squad in Seattle, exchanging personalized jerseys.</p>



<p>In 2017, Ferrell attended a Chelsea vs Arsenal match at Stamford Bridge while filming “Holmes and Watson” in London. Celebrating the Blues’ win, the actor took a picture with Eden Hazard in the changing rooms.</p>



<h2>Big LAFC role</h2>



<p>While his support for the English side was rooted in a fan’s perspective, the 56-year-old’s role with <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/don-garber-says-july-4th-el-trafico-may-break-mls-record/">Los Angeles Football Club</a> took his soccer involvement to a new level. LAFC, established in 2014, aimed to bring a fresh and dynamic soccer experience to Los Angeles. The Irvine native joined the club’s ownership group in 2016. That way, he showcased his commitment to promoting soccer in the United States.</p>



<p>As a part-owner of the Black and Gold, Ferrell has been actively involved in the club’s activities. He frequently attends matches at Banc of California Stadium, where his presence is a source of excitement for fans. Ferrel’s hands-on approach and genuine excitement characterize the team’s success. His investment in the club goes beyond financial support; it reflects his dedication to growing the sport and engaging with the community.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1200" height="670" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.worldsoccertalk.com/webp/full/WST_20240516_WST_507067_Will-Ferrell-LAFC-1200x670_9d311b01.webp&amp;width=1200&amp;height=670" alt="" class="wp-image-507153" srcset="https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/05/Will-Ferrell-LAFC-1200x670.jpg 1200w, https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/05/Will-Ferrell-LAFC-300x168.jpg 300w, https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/05/Will-Ferrell-LAFC-768x429.jpg 768w, https://worldsoccertalk.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/05/Will-Ferrell-LAFC.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px"></figure></figure>



<p>One of the key aspects of LAFC’s mission is community engagement, a value that resonates deeply with Ferrell. The club’s initiatives in youth soccer programs, local charity events, and community outreach align with Ferrell’s vision of making a positive impact through sports. His participation in these initiatives has helped to strengthen the bond between the club and its supporters, further establishing the club as a model organization in MLS.</p>



<h2>Recent English emergence in Will Ferrell soccer support</h2>



<p>In recent years, Ferrell has also developed ties with Wrexham, a Welsh club with a rich history and an enthusiastic fanbase. This connection emerged through his friendship with fellow actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, who acquired Wrexham in 2020. Their efforts to revive the club and bring it back to prominence have garnered significant attention, with Ferrell lending his support to their cause.</p>



<p>Ferrell’s visits to Wrexham games, invited by his Hollywood co-stars, have added a touch of glamour to the club. His presence at the matches, often captured in the media, highlights the unique blend of entertainment and sports that Wrexham’s new ownership has brought to the table. </p>



<p>The popular actor’s involvement with the Red Dragons is primarily as a supportive friend. Despite that, his appearances have helped to boost the club’s profile and attract a much broader audience.</p>



<p>Then just recently, the veteran expanded his soccer portfolio by <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/new-reynolds-and-mcelhenney-hollywood-star-invests-in-leeds/">becoming one of the celebrity investors of Leeds United</a>, another storied club in English soccer. Leeds, known for its passionate supporters and rich history, represents a new and exciting chapter in Ferrell’s soccer journey.</p>



<p>Nearly a year ago, in the summer of 2023, 49ers Enterprises paid $215 million to acquire the club. But for now, Ferrel will not have any say at Elland Road, according to <a href="https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/ce5l47k2jpvo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BBC Radio Leeds</a>, as his investment is still small.</p>



<p>Despite his many appearances and connections with several teams, Ferrell made it clear in an interview with <a href="https://twitter.com/SkySportsPL/status/1624771798909722625" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sky Sports</a> that he does not support any club. Rather than rooting for any one club, he mostly prefers watching the Premier League as a whole.</p>

<p>Some celebrities only don Premier League support when it looks cool. Kim Kardashian may show up at the Emirates to watch <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/arsenal-tv-schedule/">Arsenal</a>. She was not there when Arsene Wenger was slugging away to keep Arsenal’s consecutive appearances in the UEFA Champions League alive. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HI16y3S40go" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Snoop Dogg</a> has worn the kit of just about every club in the Premier League, and some in the Championship. It would be hard to believe he is a Norwich City or Queen’s Park Rangers supporter. To be fair, he did represent both those clubs during concerts at times. </p>



<p>Certainly, there are some casual supporters. But, at the same time, some celebrities passionately follow Premier League teams. On some occasions, that goes so far as ownership.</p>



<p>Lebron James <a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/other-sports/american-sports/lebron-james-liverpool-fc-fsg-28430247" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">holds a stake in Liverpool</a>, and he has gone to social media to praise the club several times. JJ Watt is now a <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/jj-watts-plan-to-make-burnley-big-in-america-like-wrexham-20230511-WST-432420.html">minority investor in Burnley</a>, and he is <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/jj-watts-connection-with-burnleys-small-town-vibe-20230602-WST-435671.html">making the most of that</a> early on. </p>



<p>Yet, when it comes purely to fandom, some major celebrities support Premier League clubs. This is more than just Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, Manchester City or Spurs, too. Support of the top flight goes across the board.</p>



<h2>Hollywood celebrities and their Premier League clubs</h2>



<h5>The Big six</h5>



<p>Manchester United’s success in the 1990s and 2000s made it arguably the biggest European club in the United States. Now, the club has a number of famous followers. <strong>Justin Timberlake</strong> and <strong>Megan Fox</strong> are two major supporters of the club. However, none has made headlines as recently as <strong>Julia Roberts</strong>. City manager Pep Guardiola talked about the actress after City defeated RB Leipzig in the Champions League. The Red Devils brought up pictures of Roberts’s trip to Old Trafford from some years ago.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="ck-youtube"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Pep Guardiola says he&apos;s a failure because Julia Roberts visited Manchester United" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/e0xJ54KuFBo?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div>
</div></figure>



<p>Arsenal also has rapturous support from celebrities, a credit to the club’s performances in the 2000s. <strong>Colin Firth</strong> and <strong>Daisy Ridley</strong> are two actors to be in major Hollywood films in the last several years. The same goes for <strong>Idris Elba</strong>, a profound Arsenal supporter, who was ‘<a href="https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/12631408/idris-elba-arsenal-are-getting-stronger" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Arteta In</a>‘ when things looked bleak for the Gunners last season. </p>



<p><strong>Gordon Ramsay</strong> may not be a traditional ‘Hollywood’ celebrity, but the chef is now extremely TV famous. Once a former prospect as a player, Ramsay had an injury that relegated him to simply support Chelsea. He joins the likes of <strong>Michael Caine</strong> and <strong>Will Ferrell</strong>. Yes, Ferrell supports Chelsea, even if he is the owner of LAFC and has expressed a clear fandom of that, too. It is possible to do both.</p>



<p><em>Guardians of the Galaxy</em> star <strong>Dave Bautista</strong> supports Tottenham. And, while not an actor or director, <strong>Adele</strong> also supports Spurs, and she may be the globally famous person named thus far.</p>



<p>Joining Lebron James in support of Liverpool are some major names. James Bond himself, <strong>Daniel Craig</strong>, is a Liverpool supporter, as are the likes of <strong>Samuel L. Jackson</strong> and <strong>Angelina Jolie</strong>. Rounding out a star-studded supporter base is <strong>Mike Myers</strong>.</p>



<p>Last on the list of the big six is Manchester City. City certainly has the fewest celebrity supporters, with <strong>Noel Gallagher</strong> being the most famous. The late <strong>Alan Rickman</strong>, who played Severus Snape in the Harry Potter film series, was a City fan. Note that both Gallagher and Rickman supported the Citizens before the cash infusion just over a decade ago.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



<h5>Major names throughout the Premier League</h5>



<p>The Premier League clubs outside of those six have just as many famous supporters. Some of those are arguably more famous. Starting with Crystal Palace, <strong>Liam Neeson</strong> is a supporter of the Eagles. As is <strong>Bill Nighy</strong>, who starred <em>Love Actually </em>and <em>Living</em>.</p>



<p><strong>Sylvester Stallone</strong> and <strong>Judi Dench</strong> are two major actors that both call themselves Toffees. In fact, Stallone regretted not buying Everton in the 2000s. </p>



<p>West Ham has a knack for late-night TV hosts. <strong><a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/how-michael-jordan-and-seth-meyers-helped-nbc-get-the-epl-20230601-WST-435168.html">Seth Meyers</a></strong> and <strong>James Corden</strong> both support the Hammers. Perhaps there is a connection between the east London club and American talk shows that start past midnight.</p>



<p>Staying in London, <strong>Margot Robbie</strong> is a reported Fulham fan. The Australian does more than just wear a scarf or shirt from the club. Cameras spotted the actress at Craven Cottage on several occasions.  </p>



<p>Surely, there are other celebrities that support Premier League clubs that we missed. Who do you know that is a big-time Premier League fan?</p>
