From photographer to model, influencer, amateur chef and finally businessman – no one can accuse Brooklyn Beckham of taking a conventional career path.
But David and Victoria Beckham‘s oldest son added another unlikely string to his bow on Thursday by starring in a new ad on behalf of his passion project, hot sauce company Cloud 23.
Dipping his toes into a trade better suited to his actress wife, Brooklyn, 26, stars alongside New York restaurateur John Seymour in short commerical The Perfect Match, ostensibly to promote their current business venture.
The pair have teamed up to launch a new sweet jalapeño pulled chicken sandwich – garnished with Brooklyn’s Cloud 23 – across all of Seymour’s US based Sweet Chick restaurants.
But the native New Yorker appears to steal Brooklyn’s thunder as they share a cab to one of his restaurants before bonding over the quality of said sandwich.
Taking to Instagram, a handful of followers were clearly impressed with Seymour’s acting skills – while overlooking his co-star.

‘You’re a natural with the acting bro,’ wrote one.
A second added: ‘We’re here for John the actor….mad good!!!!’
Elsewhere a third joked: ‘Lemme find out John’s got an Oscar on the way.’
Seymour immediately claimed the spotlight with his subtle reference to Brooklyn’s father David, from whom the influencer is currently estranged.
Climbing into the cab alongside his new business partner, the restaurateur wears a vintage Manchester United training top, emblazoned with the logo of their former sponsor, Vodafone.
The mobile phone network famously sponsored United for six years from 2000, a trophy laden period for David before his departure for Real Madrid in 2003.
Brooklyn announced the launch of his hot sauce, available exclusively at Whole Foods shops in the UK, in October 2024, and has regularly used his considerable social media presence to promote the brand.
Cloud 23, named after the No.23 jersey his father wore at Real Madrid and Los Angeles Galaxy, currently comes in two variants – Sweet Jalapeno and Hot Habanero.

Meanwhile, Brooklyn and his actress wife Nicola Peltz, 30, have been engulfed in an escalating family rift, with parents David and Victoria believed to be concerned about the influence the billionaire heiress has over their eldest son.
A source told The Sun: ‘It’s one thing after another for Brooklyn.’
It was previously claimed that Brooklyn told his famous family that ‘he wants no contact with them.’
While a source close to Brooklyn denied the claims, a source told Page Six: ‘Brooklyn told his family he wants no contact and he’s not responding to those that try to connect.’
According to the publication, the eldest Beckham boy has had no communication with his family after David’s knighthood was announced and only learned of the news in the media alongside the rest of the world.
Denying he’d asked for no contact, a source close to Brooklyn told the publication: ‘Everyone’s focus should be David Beckham’s great honour’.
Meanwhile a source close to Brooklyn told Daily Mail that ‘this seems to be another deliberate attempt to misrepresent the truth, and it only serves to distract from this honour being bestowed on Brooklyn’s father.’
