From pornstar to cowboy: Eric Cantona's film career continues to intrigue

Manchester United icon stars in another new movie called The Salvation alongside Eva Green and Mads Mikkelsen.

HIS MOST RECENT movie, You and the Night, may have been referred to as ‘soft-core porn’ (he played an orgy-loving male, eh, ‘professional performer’ called ‘The Stud’) but Eric Cantona continues to rack up the acting roles and his latest outing sees him feature in an old-fashioned western.

‘The Salvation’ is a Danish film in which Cantona plays a character called ‘The Corsican’ and he stars alongside Eva Green and Mads Mikkelsen – the pair having worked together in James Bond thriller Casino Royale.

It’s got a string of solid reviews and the trailer is below – it features a classic Cantona moment when he shares a lovely moment with Mikkelsen…before dropping him to the floor with a firm right-hander.
