WWE News: Former WWE Star Kevin Nash Agrees to Huge Movie Deal

Former WWE, WCW and current TNA Impact wrestler Kevin Nash has reportedly agreed to be part of the sequel of the Nicolas Cage movie Ghost Rider.

Nash has starred in several major motion pictures over his career, and the already exciting movie should be even better with Nash no doubt as a villain.

Wrestle Zone is reporting:

IMDB.com is listing Kevin Nash as appearing in the sequel to the 2007 film "Ghost Rider" starring Nicolas Cage. The sequel will see Cage reprise the role of the Ghost Rider and Nash's character has yet to be named. The film will be titled "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Revenge.

Nash was always one of the best talkers on the mic, and his ability to sell himself as a heel makes him the perfect candidate for a major role in a movie.

Most of the big wrestling stars start to have serious injuries that disallow them from competing at a high level anymore. When that time comes, like the Rock has had success in the movies, other stars like Nash want a piece of the action.

While the movie role with Cage will be his biggest, Nash has played in several movies over the years, including Grandma’s Boy, the Punisher and the Longest Yard.

Throughout Nash’s tenure in the wrestling world, he was always one of most polarizing characters in the sport, so the jump to starring in major motion pictures was a natural progression for the star.

Now if only Ghost Rider 2 needed a bum for the movie, they could recruit Scott Hall.
