David Beckham, a beloved national hero and football icon, seems to be venturing into the world of acting alongside comedian Kevin Hart in a side-splitting ad campaign for H&M. The unlikely pair hit the open road in a tour bus promoting their show ‘I, Beckham: The Musical’. Sporting coordinated outfits from H&M’s Modern Essentials collection, the duo’s journey to Las Vegas takes a hilariously chaotic turn when they encounter a police officer and then manage to get lost.

David Beckham and Kevin Hart are back at it again in a brand new H&M campaign, hitting the road and promoting a hilarious parody show called ‘I, Beckham: The Musical’.
While behind the wheel, Hart confidently states, “Those Vegas financiers are going to love the idea of a musical!” However, Beckham, seated next to him in the passenger seat, seems a bit unsure about the plan. This is the second collaboration between the soccer superstar and the comedian for H&M. In the previous advertisement, Kevin prepared to portray David in a biographical film. Regarding the new campaign, Beckham remarked, “I had a great time shooting the first campaign with Kevin for H&M, so we had to make a sequel. This time, we’ve taken the story even further. I hope everyone enjoys it as much as we did filming it.”
Kevin Hart expressed enthusiasm about the campaign by stating, “I’m excited to once again showcase to the world what we all already know – that I am the real source of inspiration for David Beckham’s style.”
