10 funny Wayne Rooney acting videos, including DC United announcement and that Manchester United wine advert
Wayne Rooney confirmed his move to DC United on Thursday after leaving Everton.
The striker signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with his new Major League Soccer club and they announced the move with the following video.
This was not the first time Rooney’s ‘acting’ has been put to the test during his football career.
X-Men Apocalypse trailer
Rooney became a new superhero in this astonishing promo piece ahead of the release of X-Men Apocalypse in 2016.
Nike ‘Write The Future’ World Cup 2010 advert
The iconic Rooney ad. Wayne sees his career take two very different paths as part of Nike’s pre-World Cup film in 2010.
Turkish Airlines ‘Business Class’ advert
Wazza is only in this team effort for a few seconds, but instantly steals the show.
Nike ‘In The Zone’ advert
Back at a time when Rooney could afford to recklessly shave his hair, he did so for a Nike advert.
Nike Rooney v Rory McIlroy in football golf
This is less of an original idea now that ‘footgolf’ is increasing in popularity, though it does include a cameo from the Brazilian Ronaldo.
Nike ‘Put It Where You Want It’ advert
No words needed from the young United man.
Powerade ‘Rooney v Rooney’ advert
What’s better than one acting Rooney? TWO acting Rooneys of course.
Independence Day Resurgence trailer
Yet another Manchester United film trailer, thankfully for Wayne, he doesn’t shoulder all of the embarrassment this time.
Casillero del Diablo wine advert
What can you say about this masterpiece? Watch it and you will be lost for words.

David Ornstein tweets about Arsenal defender Calum Chambers possibly signing a new contract and fans responded with their funny memes
When David Ornstein tweets about Arsenal, the supporters listen and then reply to him with brilliant memes.
His latest bit of club gossip was about Calum Chambers signing a new contract.
This is obviously great news, but the fact Arsenal fans heard it first from the BBC Sport correspondent meant they could pay tribute to the ‘meme lord’ in their own way. Remember when he tweeted news of Bernd Leno’s arrival?
Chambers has been an Arsenal player since 2014 when the club paid Southampton £16million for him. He spent the 2016/17 season on loan Middlesbrough, but new manager Unai Emery has seen enough potential in the 23-year-old to want to keep him at the club. Arsenal have already snapped up Leno and Stephan Lichtsteiner, while they have also been linked with Borussia Dortmund centre-back Sokratis Papastathopoulos.
However, like many people on Twitter, talkSPORT.com was only there for the memes, which you can see a selection of below.

England's Gareth Southgate 'brave' to make Belgium changes - Harry Maguire
