Manchester United players and Hollywood promotional videos don't mix well.
In yet another cross promotion that will make football supporters cringe, United players, Wayne Rooney, Daley Blind, Ashley Young, Chris Smalling, and Juan Mata, feature in an advertisement for the upcoming "Independence Day: Resurgence" movie.
Actor Jeff Goldblum also plays a part in the clip, and actually has a somewhat funny exchange with Blind about how to pronounce the Dutch player's name.
Other than that, it's pretty grim, and just as hard to watch as the X-Men spoof Rooney featured in last month.
