Juan Sebastián Verón stars in "Peaky Blinders" movie promo
The Estudiantes president featured in a Netflix Argentina trailer for the premiere of The Immortal Man.
Dressed as a character from the new film in a full suit and flat cap, Verón interrupts a conversation about Tommy Shelby, mistakenly believing they are referring to him.
The spot is packed with references to Verón’s persona and public life, including his long-standing friction with the press over his "English" style and reputation.
Netflix is leveraging football to promote the film globally; last Saturday, the streaming giant executed a matchday activation at Atlético de Madrid's stadium during the players' walkout.
