David Beckham Adds Pool Hustle to His Underwear Hype in H&M Ad

By Kiran Aditham 

It’s a little unusual to see David Beckham in an ad wearing anything beyond his tighty-whities.

For years, the H&M undergarment pitchman and former soccer great has been showing off his midriff, but he adds some pool hustle to the usual swagger in this new ad.

Marc Forster, the man behind films like Monster’s Ball and World War Z, directs “Becks” in a “short film” (UGH) attributed to U.K. agency Strange Cargo.

Beckham doesn’t bend much in promoting the retailer’s “Modern Essentials,” but it’s nice to see a man enjoying his retirement.
