#3 Eric Cantona
‘King Eric’ as the Manchester United fans popularly call him enjoys a cult status at the club. The big, strong Frenchman was known for guile and hot temper on the field and is credited with rejuvenating the club in his five-year spell at Old Trafford. But what most Manchester United fans might not know is that he is also a successful actor.
The 50-year-old made his acting debut in the Oscar-winning Shekar Kapur film Elizabeth in 1998. He then went on to act in several movies, most of them being French. He also played the role of Corsican in the 2015 movie ‘The Salvation’ which also starred Eva Green and Mads Mikkelsen. 2009 movie ‘Looking for Eric’ is a must watch movie in which he plays a similar role to himself.
