LOS ANGELES, June 5 — It looks like Neymar is making the most of his one-week holiday in Los Angeles, before gearing up to represent his country Brazil at the Rio Olympics in August.

Straight off the bat, The Sport Bible confirmed that the Barca forward will be using his time in the City of Angels to shoot scenes for his film debut in xXx: The Return of Zander Cage.

At time of writing, it is unclear what role Neymar will play.

However, the film’s star Vin Diesel shared a screengrab of his FaceTime chat with Neymar on Instagram yesterday to confirm that his first scene was already a wrap.

He also praised Neymar’s acting skills, calling him “a natural”.

xXx: The Return of Zander Cage is slated for release in January 2017.

The action film centres on a character called Zander Cage who is a thrill-seeking extreme sports enthusiast, stuntman and reluctant spy for the NSA who is sent on a mission to infiltrate a gang of Russian terrorists in Europe.

Meanwhile, on Friday, Neymar hung out with Justin Bieber at the pop star’s LA-area home where the duo engaged in an impromptu kickabout in his backyard.

Bieber shared the following clip of the pair goofing around on his Instagram account:
