As the Los Angeles Galaxy prepare to honor legend David Beckham with a statue outside the stadium, James Corden and the club assemble an intricate plan to prank David with, annoying fans, a half-hearted highlight reel and a statue that falls incredibly below the mark.

Each week night, THE LATE LATE SHOW with JAMES CORDEN throws the ultimate late night after party with a mix of celebrity guests, edgy musical acts, games and sketches. Corden differentiates his show by offering viewers a peek behind-the-scenes into the green room, bringing all of his guests out at once and lending his musical and acting talents to various sketches. Additionally, bandleader Reggie Watts and the house band provide original, improvised music throughout the show. Since Corden took the reigns as host in March 2015, he has quickly become known for generating buzzworthy viral videos, such as Carpool Karaoke."

DAVID BECKHAM,
OH, GOODNESS ME! PURE GENIUS.

THE 2019 L.A. GALAXY
SEASON IS GOING TO

KICK OFF WHICH HUGE CERIMONY
HONORING THEIR GREATE EVER

PLAYER DAVID BECKHAM.

2K3W58 AXEY THE TEAM HAS BUILT A

BRAND NEW STATUE OF DAVID WITH
WHICH THEY WILL UNVEIL FOR THE

FIRST TIME RIGHT HERE AT THIS
STADIUM IN FRONT OF 25,000

PEOPLE.

NOW DAVID IS A GOOD FRIEND OF
MINE AND WHEN I HEARD THAT HE

HASN'T SEEN THE FULLY FINISHED
STATUE YET, I THOUGHT IT MIGHT

BE FUN TO SWITCH OUT THE REAL
STATUE WITH ONE THAT WE MADE A

LITTLE LESS FLATTERING.

IN ORDER TO PULL THIS OFF OUR
PROPS DEPARTMENT WILL TO FIND

THE RIGHT BALANCE BETWEEN
REALISTIC AND ABSOLUTELY

TERRIBLE.

HE SAID WHEN HE SAW THE FIRST HE
SAID THAT HE THOUGHT THE CHIN

WAS TOO BIG AND THE BUTT WAS TOO
BIG.

THIS IS WHAT I AM THINKING, IS
WE HE CAN GO BIGGER O ON THE

CHIN.

AFTER TWO MONTHS OF GRUELING
WORK, WE BROUGHT THE STATUE TO

THE STADIUM FOR A PRIVATE
UNVEILING FOR DAVID.

>> THE STATUE IS FINISH AND HERE

GLORY.

HE'S BEING SO POLITE EVEN
THOUGH IT'S TERRIBLE.

WELL, LET ME ASK YOU, WHAT DO

THINGS ABOUT IT THAT YOU LIKE.

HOW CAN YOU CHANGE IT IN THIS
SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.
