Hulk Hogan. Rowdy Roddy Piper. Jesse Ventura. The Rock. John Cena. Batista. Edge. All of these wrestlers, and more, have parlayed their success in professional wrestling into an acting career, to varying degrees of success.
Now, Cody Rhodes is hinting that he may be the latest WWE Superstar to test his chops in Hollywood.
That's what he told the Pardon My Take Podcast recently, when asked about his tinsel town plans.
“I’d love to get out there, there’s some fun projects coming up. I’d love to get out there and tell stories that way for sure and grow. I love pro wrestling, I always will. To get out there, I love what Rock has done, I love what John has done, and Dave Batista as well. All of them have gone different routes when approaching Hollywood and I think I might be next to join the fray in all that," Rhodes said.
Rhodes is no stranger to the silver screen, as he filmed a scene for the upcoming Naked Gun reboot. He's also appeared alongside his friend Stephen Amell in The CW Network's Arrow.
