David Beckham’s British ‘GQ’ Photospread

Last Monday we got our first look at the cover for the new 20th anniversary issue of British GQ magazine featuring David Beckham. Today we get to check out the pics from this issue’s photospread:

We already know about how Becks claims to not be interested in having a career in Hollywood and we already heard about his friendship with Tom Cruise … I’m more partial to seeing what the man looks like in this latest GQ photospread. After the jump, check out the pics …

20th anniversary issue
David Beckham Does British ‘GQ’ Magazine

David Beckham is featured on the cover of the 20th anniversary issue of British GQ magazine this month and reveals to the mag, in his coverstory interview, that he has no plans to have a movie career in Hollywood … despite his handsome good looks ;) He also talks Scientology and his lurve for SoCal. Here is Becks‘s cover and a portion of his GQ interview:

Although he lives in Beverly Hills and watches movies at home with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, the soccer-star-turned-model swears he has no plans to join them on the big screen. Asked if he hopes to develop a film career, the fashion fan recently issued an emphatic denial. “What film career? I haven’t got one,” Beckham told the December issue of British GQ. “Never say never, except about that! And that’s the way it’s going to stay.” Still, that doesn’t stop 33-year-old from mingling with famous friends like Cruise. “He came round for dinner a few weeks ago,” said Beckham. “But it’s the same with him. We just go round and watch a film. It’s not a big deal, it’s just popping round to watch a film or to mess around and play with the kids.” The Brit also dismissed claims that Cruise has tried to convert him or his wife Victoria. “I respect any person’s religion. Everybody’s got their own ideas,” said Beckham. “And, of course, Tom is a big believer in Scientology, but he’s never pushed anything on to us about it and he never will do. Friends don’t do that.” His L.A. Galaxy soccer team has failed to make the playoffs and will not take the field again until next March. During the lay-off, Beckham will reportedly play for Italy’s AC Milan. But, he insists, America is still his home. “We’re happy here at the moment, that’s the biggest thing,” he explained. “When your family are happy, that’s all you can ask for.”

Blah. I love me some Becks but these tidbits offer nothing new. I’m much more interested in the lovely coverphoto. Hopefully the rest of the mag’s photospread will make its way online. Also, I wouldn’t mind hearing how he became “the iconic man of our time” as the magazine cover proclaims. I’m not sure when the mag hits newsstands but hopefully we’ll get more Becks soon.

Also sits for a moody photoshoot
Christian Bale Does British ‘GQ’, Mexican ‘Rolling Stone’

Batman: The Dark Knight star Christian Bale is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issues of British GQ magazine and Mexican Rolling Stone magazine. With all the hype surrounding the release of The Dark Knight reaching a fever pitch, these are but the latest magazines to feature the actor on their covers. Here is Christian‘s full GQ photospread:

It’s a sexy yet dapper shoot. I don’t ever understand the shiny face thing that some photoshoots call for but I guess it does add a bit of harshness to the photos. Christian looks damn good in his suit but I must confess that I think I prefer him out of the suit even more.

Here is the cover of the new issue of the Mexican version of Rolling Stone magazine:

The cover is simple yet striking. The dichotomy play works really well, especially when you consider that The Joker isn’t the only bad guy we’ll get to see in The Dark Knight. The emergence of Two Face is bound to add to the awesomeness.

After the jump, check out a few photos of Christian lookin’ moody as hell at a press conference photoshoot for the movie which took place here in SoCal recently …
