It was just a matter of time before everyone’s fave #MCE made his way to our TV screens in a starring role and now it is confirmed. Odell Beckham Jr. will make acting debut in ‘Code Black’ on CBS.

That’s not it, he will also star in a coveted Super Bowl 50 commercial this Sunday (Feb 7).

Via New York Daily News:

On Feb. 10, the Wednesday after Super Bowl 50, the Giants’ superstar receiver will embark on a second career as an actor. Beckham will make a guest appearance on the CBS medical drama “Code Black,” starring alongside Emmy Award winner Beau Bridges, the network announced Tuesday morning.

Beckham won’t exactly have to get into character in his first-ever guest starring role on a TV show, though. The receiver will play himself. Following a charity luncheon where he’s honored, Beckham will learn that Pete Delaney, his high school football coach in the show, played by Bridges, is battling severe abdominal pain. Delaney will wind up at Angels Memorial Hospital and Beckham will help convince him to have surgery.

Beckham will also appear in a TV ad during the Super Bowl 50, alongside actress and model Emily Ratajkowski. It’s an ad for Buick’s all-new line of Cascada luxury convertible, a 30-second spot during the NFL’s championship game. Ratajkowski is best known for her starring role in the critically acclaimed film “Gone Girl.”
