David Beckham plays a prince in a new Disney campaign–his first showpiece endorsement since announcing his move to L.A.
Beckham was among the celebrities photographed in roles of Disney movie characters last month during a “Year of a Million Dreams” promotion for Walt Disney theme parks.
The soccer star was photographed as the prince from “Sleeping Beauty,” astride a white horse and fighting a fire-breathing dragon.
The photo, shot at a lake near Madrid by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz, will appear in magazines such as Vanity Fair and Vogue in March.
The 31-year-old midfielder with Real Madrid signed a recent five-year deal with the L.A. Galaxy of the MLS and will join the club this summer. His wife, former Spice Girl Victoria, has been spotted house-hunting in Southern California.
Other photos for the Disney campaign feature singer-actress Beyonce Knowles as Alice in Wonderland and actress Scarlett Johansson as Cinderella.
