London: Ace soccer David Beckham is pleased he dropped his acting ambitions because he would never have been able to reach the standard of the Hollywood stars.

Beckham, 39, said at the 66th BAFTA Awards, where he also presented the best British film trophy, reported Female First.

"I have done a few things over the last 15 years, but nothing of these standards. I will keep it at that, I think," he said.

Beckham said he gets starstruck by Hollywood biggies. The star said he was happy to bump into 'The Imitation Game' actor Benedict Cumberbatch at the BAFTAS.

"I do get excited. I just bumped into Benedict (Cumberbatch). He's a great guy. I have met him a few times over the last six months. It's great to be here and see so many talented people," he said.
