FORMER ASTON VILLA and Valencia striker John Carew has landed a lead role in a Norwegian gangster movie.
Carew, who won La Liga and Ligue 1 during his career, announced his retirement back in October 2013 after being released by West Ham. Since then, he has turned his attention to the silver screen and has already starred in two films to date- - Et døgn med Elin and Dead of Winter.
In his new film Hovdinger, the 35-year-old plays hired-muscle Ivan. Describing his part in a recent interview, Carew said that ”it’s a fun and interesting role. I would compare myself with Will Smith and ‘The Rock’ perhaps.”
He shared this trailer with fans on his Instagram page:
Don’t rule out seeing John Carew in Fast and the Furious 15 just yet.
