Odell Beckham Jr. altcasting the Champions League Final with Tom Cruise and David Beckham
Odell Beckham Jr. altcasting the Champions League Final with Tom Cruise and David Beckham Saturday afternoon brings a collaboration between Beckham Jr. and Beckham, as well as a meeting of the worlds of football and American football. Former Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will join David Beckham, probably the world's most famous football/soccer player, and Tom Cruise, one of the world's most recognizable actors, to altcast the UEFA Champions League Final in Munich today. Beckham Jr. will be a guest on Beckham & Friends Live, an altcast of CBS Sports' UEFA Champions League broadcast, streamed on Paramount+. The altcast will begin at 3:00 PM ET on Saturday, May 31. Beckham, Cruise, and Beckham Jr. will watch French Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain take on Italian powerhouse Inter Milan in the UCL final being staged at Allianz Arena in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. Essentially, this will be akin to a soccer version of the Manningcast during Monday Night Football. An "altcast" is basically what happens when you broadcast a couple of people watching the game and having conversations with each other about what they're seeing; instead of the traditional play-by-play or color commentary on the game. It's like you and your friends watching the game in your living room or at the sports bar. It's just that in this case, Beckham Jr.'s "friends" are two of the most famous people alive. Beckham Jr., who notched a career high 16.1 yards-per-catch during the 2023 season with Baltimore, is a very avid soccer aficionado. He was also a very accomplished youth player. PSG, one of the world's richest and most powerful sports clubs, with a very unique ownership structure, is favored to win its first-ever UCL/European Cup title.
