An Arsenal legend will appear in the new Entourage movie

As will a UFC champion

Another sporting superstar will feature in the new Entourage movie based on the hit TV series

We already knew that womens UFC bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey was part of the cast for the film. Well recently, it was confirmed that former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry would also be making an appearance in the blockbuster.

However, the Frenchman’s part in the movie will be a lot smaller than the role given to the armbar specialist. In his scene in the film, Henry will test his acting chops with Jeremy Piven. The retired footballer will be walking his dog when he has an exchange with Piven’s character, eccentric Hollywood agent Ari Gold.

The Premier League only retired from the beautiful game a fortnight ago but already looks like he has big plans for his future. He will also be joining Sky Sports as a pundit from next year.

You can check out the first official teaser trailer for the new Entourage movie here. Unfortunately, it does not contain any scenes with Henry although you will get to see a sneak peek at Rousey’s character.
