Eric Cantona’s co-star in the movie Looking for Eric, Steve Evets explains the appeal of the enigmatic Frenchman.

“Women love him,” he ponders. “And blokes love him.”

“If you caught him sh***ing your wife you’d ask if she was up to scratch.”

The actor also added that being on the camera with the famous footballer under the direction of Ken Loach was like being in a “legend sandwich”.

Steve also revealed that he had no idea Cantona was in the movie until he shot their first scene together.
