They say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, and so it proved as David Beckham’s lookalike sons supported their father at the launch of his new Netflix documentary on Tuesday evening.
The entire family and their respective wives and girlfriends were at London’s O2 Arena for the premiere of BECKHAM – a biographical account of the former Manchester United and England legend’s remarkable life and career.
Posing for photos at the star-studded event, sons Brooklyn, 24, Romeo, 21, and Cruz, 18, each bore a striking resemblance to their fashion-conscious father at different points in a footballing life that has taken him from Manchester to Paris, via Madrid, Milan and Los Angeles.
Showing off a cropped hairstyle, Instagram cook Brooklyn – who attended the event with actress wife Nicola Peltz – appeared to mirror Beckham’s current skinhead.
Meanwhile Romeo, a footballer in his own right with Premier League club Brentford’s B team, opted for a tidy skin-fade reminiscent of his father’s memorable look in the early 2000s.

The premiere comes as excitement builds for their tell-all Netflix documentary, which will arrive on screens at 8:00am on Wednesday and will see the typically guarded Beckham family give an unprecedented insight into their life.
To celebrate the show’s release, Victoria Beckham, 49, put on a very smart display in a white suit as she stepped out alongside her former footballer husband, 48, at the premiere.
She opted for a glamorous white blazer with a plunging neckline and satin lapels, which she styled with straight leg trousers and black pointed heels.
The fashion designer toted her essentials in a small black clutch bag with a gold clasp as she smiled for snaps with her husband of 24 years.
Her husband cut a dapper figure in a navy suit and brown loafers as he continued to show off his newly shaved buzz-cut at the premiere.
The couple looked as close as ever as they shared a sweet hug in one intimate moment on the carpet as they showed their support for each other.
Ahead of the show’s hotly-anticipated release, director Fisher Stevens has told how it was ‘unpleasant’ to ask David and Victoria about their marriage ‘difficulties’.

Speaking to The Sunday Times, Fisher said: ‘It wasn’t pleasant, but we got into it.’
‘For me, I approached it as, “How did your marriage stay together?” and you’ll see how he responds,’ he went on.
‘I talked with both of them about the difficulties they went through.’
Producer John Battsek added: ‘They were both signed up to telling us whatever we wanted to know. I’m sure you’ll say, “Of course you would say that.” But they were. There was no, “You will not ask that or do that.”
‘Fisher and I thought that might be the case, but we were clear from the start that we would only do this if we could go in any direction we wanted. And we did.’
