Angle, Big Show Outline Wrestlers In Hollywood

The acting bug has bitten many WWE stars as of late. Some are worth checking out, while others are not.

This leads us to a question—who resembles The Rock and who looks like Goldberg in Santa with Muscles? Check out the upcoming flicks. I've excluded WWE Films. Decide for yourself.

Rob Van Dam

RVD isn't a stranger to the silver screen as he has appeared in a handful of low budget movies in addition to several TV appearances.

This month, RVD is filming Wrong Side of Town, which Rob Van Dam described as "inspired originally by the movie Warriors."

This film is said to be two years in the making with RVD's part written specifically for him. Add in the fact that Lionsgate is teaming up with the film makers, it should be something worth watching regardless if it features the self proclaimed not-the best actor in the world in RVD...unless you know a little bit about the director, David DeFalco. DeFalco might be most known for the film Chaos, which was destroyed by renown movie critic Robert Ebert.

Little else is known about the film at this time. Good luck RVD.

Kurt Angle

Kurt Angle has already stated that he wants to jump into acting when his wrestling career comes to an end. He has taken the first steps as he has already completed one movie with multiple others on the way.

Angle's first film End Game will be released sometime in 2009, and it doesn't look to be a straight to DVD film.

As the leading man, Angle plays Brad Mayfield, a serial killer. Does it not seem that Angle is perfect for the role of a killer? I can imagine his beady little eyes, flaring nostrils and vain popping forehead completely going psycho on someone.

The cast is made up of Pittsburghers including Jenna Morasca, a cast member of TV's Survivor 2003. This one might be worth checking into.

Big Show

Formerly known as Captain Insano in Waterboy, Big Show is making his return to the big screen.

Big Show will play the part of Marduk in Little Hercules in 3D. What better time to return than joining his good friend Hulk Hogan in this 3D family film.

The film was started back in 2006 and also features Judd Nelson and the entire Hogan clan. But most notably it features Richard Sandrak, who was declared World's Strongest Boy several years ago.

Show should know from Mr. Nanny to be hesitant about getting in a film with Hogan as his star power hasn't traslated like Dewayne Johnson's.

Chris Jericho

Not many in the wrestling world has been hotter than the leader of Fozzy. Chris Jericho looks to extend his hot streak to the silver screen when he stars in the horror flick Albino Farm.

This is truly a freak fest as the film follows four college students as they battle it out with cave-dwelling mutants.

Sounds crazy? No. It sounds right up Jericho's ally. I'd guess Jericho would be best fit in a comedy, no brainier right, but lately Y2J has demonstrating the perfect dramatic showcase that could let him shine in an off-beat horror flick.

Special Add On:

Ric Flair

Making his video game debut, Nature Boy, Ric Flair looks to "wooo" gamers with his role as Commander Hill in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3—Uprising.

Flair joins a solid cast including Malcolm McDowell (Saw), Jamie Chung (Dragonball Evolution), Holly Velance (Taken), Randy Couture (UFC) and more for the beloved PC series.
