THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Beckham told Bela Bajaria, Chief Content Officer of Netflix, after admitting he almost pulled the plug on the documentary: "It was difficult at times to discuss some of the stuff, because a lot of the footage and the archive stuff I'd never seen before."</p><p>The United legend added on following the same path as NBA royalty: "I love everything about Michael Jordan. His career is inspirational. He's an inspiration as a person, as a businessman, as a club owner.&nbsp;But I remember when The Last Dance first came out, I was sat there with Victoria, and we were kind of saying, what should we watch.&nbsp;We had a little bit of an argument over that. And then all of a sudden, she was like, let's watch it. And she was like, Okay, that was one of the best things I've ever, I've ever seen. So to see that story again and hear it that way was an inspiration for me to think, okay, eventually I want to do something like that. I want to do something where I make a documentary, because we've been talking about it for a long time.&nbsp; At some point, I knew that I would have to make one. But you know what watching Michael's was incredible."</p><p></p>
