Nicole Kidman wants football star David Beckham to appear in her new movie Australia as a “hunky labourer”, according to reports.
The actress watched Beckham play for his team LA Galaxy recently and was impressed with his muscular physique.
A source said: “Nicole thinks David would be perfect to play a labourer in the film, and director Baz Luhrmann agrees.
“It would only be a small part and Nicole is hoping David might consider it.”
Australia is a World War II musical epic which stars Kidman as an English aristocrat who falls in love with a rugged Australian, played by Hugh Jackman.
Beckham, who has cameoed in a couple of films, has previously insisted he does not want to forge an acting career.
He said: “I never wanted to be an actor. It has never appealed to me. When I finish my soccer career what I want to do most is spend more time with my sons and Victoria and do some work for good causes.”

Today’s quote of the day comes from Nicole Kidman, courtesy of People Magazine, and explains how Nicole picks her roles.
Oscar-winner says she is so happy relaxing with her husband in Nashville, she has to be ’seduced’ to accept movie roles.
Really Nicole? Seduced? From the looks of your recent movies (’The Invasion,’ ‘Bewitched,’ ‘Birth,’ ‘The Stepford Wives,’ ‘Cold Mountain,’ ‘The Hours,’ and ‘The Others’) that doesn’t seem all that hard to do. They only people who get out of bed for less are hookers.
Even though I have to admit, how good does ‘The Golden Compass” look? And she looks ridiculously perfect. If only everyone had a bag full of botox and chemical peals every morning for breakfast.
Maybe that explains how she was seduced by a recovering alcoholic philandering musician.
