Actor Tyrese Gibson also welcomed Ronaldo into the franchise, posting an image featuring the football icon alongside the cast and calling his arrival a major moment for the series. “Welcome to the family! Cristiano Ronaldo. The global dance just went to another level,” Gibson wrote.
Ronaldo’s Hollywood move comes shortly after he announced the launch of his own film studio, UR•MARV, in partnership with director Matthew Vaughn. The studio has already backed several action projects, showing the 40-year-old’s clear ambition to build a strong post-football career in entertainment.
While details of Ronaldo’s role remain tightly guarded, his involvement adds even more star appeal to a franchise already known for its massive ensemble. The upcoming finale is expected to return to the series’ Los Angeles roots and feature familiar faces, including Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, and Michelle Rodriguez.
Still active on the field with Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, Ronaldo continues to balance elite-level football with bold moves off it, proving his influence stretches far beyond sport.
