In an interview with Variety, Todd Phillips, who was tabbed to direct the project, was asked if there was an update.

"I love what we were trying to do, but that's not going to come together for me," he said.

The movie would reportedly focus on the origin of Hulkamania and wouldn't dive into Hogan's racist comments that came to light in 2015. Eric Bischoff was named as one of the producers and Todd Phillips, Scott Silver, and John Pollono were reportedly set to co-write the film.

Another Hogan film could see the light of day as "Killing Gawker" is reportedly in the works. Fans can learn more by clicking here.
