With the 2014 FIFA World Cup kicking off in a few days, adidas has released a new commercial starring David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane, Gareth Bale and Lucas Moura.
The four global soccer stars prepare for World Cup with their own “House Match.”
“House Match” was directed by renowned director Fernando Meirelles (“City of God”) and co-directed by Cassiano Prado. Meirelles and Prado teamed up to direct the adidas World Cup commercial starring Lionel Messi and scored by Kanye West, released last month.
Meirelles on “House Match” and filming with Beckham:
“Soccer stars are so used to being filmed that they’ve almost become actors. I was amazed to see how collaborative they were. Now that Beckham is retired from playing soccer, he could easily move his career straight to acting if he wanted and I mean that. That day’s shoot was pure fun.”
