His fiery ego is justified by the fact he is the county’s main man, leading England at this World Cup, with his own iconic celebration and looks with the license to thrill.
He is becoming Mr. England.
It was on James Corden’s FOX TV show, on which Bellingham was a special guest, that he made the revelation after Corden asked him about ‘cracking America’.
The England number 10 revealed it was on his mind, but not in a celebrity way, and said he looks up to the likes of David Beckham and the way in which he played for LA Galaxy and now owns Inter Miami.

Corden said he could see it happening, and could see Bellingham reaching movie star status.
The England man answered: “I’d love to be in a movie.
“You know what? I’d love to be in a James Bond film, I love James Bond. I’ve watched every single one.
“Even in the background or as an extra, I’d just love to be involved.”

Corden was, typically, more than enthusiastic about Bellingham getting the part and challenged him to re-enact some lines.
Bellingham delivered an ice-cold “The name’s Bond, James Bond”, and also recreated the iconic “You can’t handle the truth” line from the franchise in Corden’s car.
The pair didn’t stop their Madrid rendezvous there though.
After performing a duet of Sweet Caroline with Bellingham riding shotgun, they sat down for a ‘date’ in a picturesque setting, only for Corden to spill wine everywhere.
Corden also discussed what it was like for Bellingham living in Madrid and his celebrity status there, before recommending a celebration adjustment which England fans may well see against DR Congo, if the goalscoring midfielder keeps up his fine form.
If that is the case, expect something of a remix from the 23-year-old, where he performs his usual arms-out routine, but adds in a shoulder shimmy to go with it.
