Hauser has been in a roll in 2024 so far, landing roles in big projects like Marvel's Fantastic Four movie and Paramount's Naked Gun reboot. The Emmy winner has also made a splash in the world of wrestling, competing for independent promotions like Wrestling REVOLVER and Southern Honor Wrestling.
While speaking to The Wrap for a new interview, Hauser revealed that he is currently speaking to Mick Foley about the possibility of portraying him in a film or limited television series.
"I’m literally talking to Mick Foley right now about the potential of playing him in a movie or limited series. I don’t know which and I don’t know how, but he and I have become friendly. And I think he knows that that could be a really great stroke of genius in casting me to play him.”
Hauser went on to say that he's been approached about potentially portraying different wrestlers as well.
“A couple of people have approached me to potentially play different wrestlers in different projects, and for me, I just have to make sure that there’s a real story there and I’m not just doing it because I’m a fan.”
