Argentina are favourites for the Copa America, and it's no surprise considering they have the backing of a heavyweight champion, secret agent and the last man alive in post-apocalyptic New York.
Will Smith, star of Ali, Men in Black and I Am Legend, has publicly come out in support of the South Americans ahead of their opening game against Paraguay. The actor posed with Sergio Aguero, who scored a hat-trick in a warm-up game against Bolivia.

With an array of attacking riches, including Lionel Messi and Carlos Tevez, joining Aguero in the squad, Argentina hardly needed more assistance in their quest for glory.
Smith is not the first A-lister to put their weight behind the World Cup finalists.

However, with his backing it now seems even more likely that they'll get their fresh prints on the trophy in July.
