Hamburg's Swiss international centre-back Johan Djourou has taken an unconventional path towards Hollywood stardom, with the former Arsenal defender starring in a sex scene in an upcoming comedic release.

The French film, "N.O.L.A. Circus" was produced by Djourou along with French football pairing Louis Saha and Manchester City full-back Bacary Sagna, who's a fellow former Gunner.

Among the noteworthy scenes is one featuring Sagna inexplicably washing his car while sporting an afro. And the Oscar goes to ...

Djourou, 29, not only produced the film as part of a charitable organisation, but he stars in it, including a notable racy scene with his wife Emilie, sporting an Arsenal jersey.

"I shot the scene with my wife Emilie," the 59-time capped international said, courtesy of James Orr from the Independent.

"It was a chance to break into films. I’ve now seen the entire film, it gave me a real laugh."

The production company, which also features French NBA players Nicolas Batum, Boris Diaw, Ronny Turiaf, Ian Mahinmi, and Alexis Ajinca, uses film as a means of raising money for charities.
