Romeo Beckham is taking a new step in his career, moving from the fashion world to the big screen with his first acting role in the upcoming queer sports drama Forty Love.

The 23-year-old, who has built a profile as a model after stepping away from football, has been cast in the tennis-centred romance alongside French actors Paul Kircher, Guillaume Canet and Benjamin Voisin. The project marks Beckham’s first screen role.

Forty Love follows rising tennis player Sacha Gallo, played by Paul Kircher, as he prepares for a major tournament in Paris under the guidance of his father. The story centres on the relationship that develops when a new rival enters his life. Beckham plays the competitor whose arrival changes both the dynamics of the competition and Sacha’s personal life.

The film explores the connection between the two players alongside the pressures of professional sport.

The film is directed by Pierre-Ange Carlotti, a fashion photographer making his feature directorial debut. Carlotti co-wrote the screenplay, and the cast also includes Catherine Deneuve. The production is backed by Chi-Fou-Mi Productions, with Studiocanal and Manna Studios serving as co-producers.

For Beckham, the role represents another career shift. After spending parts of his youth in football systems linked to Arsenal, Inter Miami and Brentford, he increasingly focused on fashion, working with luxury labels and appearing on major runways and campaigns.

The casting marks Beckham’s first move into acting after establishing himself in the fashion industry. The choice of project has attracted attention because it differs from the more conventional routes often taken by celebrity offspring entering the film industry. The film is scheduled to open in French cinemas on 25 November, with international distribution plans expected to follow. It will mark Beckham’s first appearance in a feature film.

Noah Price became widely known after marrying Venezuela Fury, the eldest daughter of heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury. Their wedding on 16 May drew major media attention because of the Fury family’s public profile8, the couple’s age and Noah’s background as a young amateur boxer.

Price is from Chesterfield and competes in amateur boxing. Reports state that he previously won the East Midlands title in the 91kg youth division while representing Chesterfield ABC. Before his relationship with Venezuela Fury became public, he was largely known within amateur boxing circles rather than mainstream entertainment media.

Unlike members of the Fury family, Noah has maintained a limited public presence online. Most public interest surrounding him has come through his relationship with Venezuela, particularly following the family’s Netflix series, At Home With the Furys.

Reports claim the couple first connected through Instagram while they were teenagers. Noah later began appearing more frequently alongside the Fury family, and public discussion around the relationship increased after the pair became engaged during Venezuela Fury’s 16th birthday celebrations in 2025.

Their wedding ceremony on the Isle of Man received widespread coverage across British tabloids and entertainment outlets. Reports described a large celebration featuring 18 bridesmaids, extensive floral arrangements and a performance by Peter Andre. Several outlets also suggested that the wedding may feature in a future season of the family’s reality series.

Much of the public reaction has focused on the couple’s age. Venezuela Fury is 16, while Noah Price has been reported by different outlets as either 18 or 19. The marriage has prompted debate online, particularly outside Traveller communities where marrying young is less common in wider British society.

Although Noah Price is now closely associated with the Fury family name, he is still at an early stage in his boxing career. Tyson and Paris Fury have publicly supported the relationship, with Paris previously describing Noah as “a really nice young man” during interviews discussed by entertainment publications.

Recent reports also stated that the newlyweds moved into a luxury static caravan in Yorkshire shortly after their wedding, choosing to live independently following the ceremony.

For now, Noah Price remains best known through his connection to the Fury family. Whether public attention continues is likely to depend on both his boxing career and the couple’s growing media profile.
