KawadaSmile Posted February 20, 2019 Report Posted February 20, 2019 https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/chris-hemsworth-play-hulk-hogan-biopic-1186126 Cannot wait to see Thor absurdly tan and jacked up on cocaine, brothers. Quote
Strummer Posted February 20, 2019 Report Posted February 20, 2019 Todd Phillips is a big wrestling fan so I'd wager he knows more truth about Hogan than potentially others but this should be hilarious. Also with Bradley Cooper producing this will get a ton of attention Quote
flyonthewall2983 Posted February 20, 2019 Report Posted February 20, 2019 Is WWE Films producing this? Quote
...TG Posted February 20, 2019 Report Posted February 20, 2019 Chris Hemsworth playing Hogan is way too flattering to Hogan's attractiveness, IMO. Quote
Steve T Posted February 20, 2019 Report Posted February 20, 2019 There probably is a great movie to be made here but I doubt this is it. Quote
El-P Posted February 20, 2019 Report Posted February 20, 2019 Can't wait for all the whitewashing and revisionist shit. Quote
SomethingSavage Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Hemsworth as Hogan is not something I ever knew I wanted, but I need to see this. Line starts behind me, gents. Quote
SirEdger Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 Screw this, I wanna know who's cast as The Iron Sheik. Quote

For what it's worth, they are avoiding touching upon Hogan's more recent years. It only goes as far as the Hulkamania boom, so there's a chance they won't be too revisionit. Can't wait to see who they cast as Vince, Macho or Piper. Honestly there are some batshit possibilities there. Quote

Jmare007 Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 Joe Mangianello better be Randy Savage. Man the high levels of fuckery we are about to get. Verne Gagne should be hilarious in this. Quote

Just in case you have any doubt how this is going to go. Quote
Johnny Sorrow Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 I hope this is a full on comedic take of the bullshit stories. I want to see Thor play bass for Metallica. Quote

They have a stake in Fighting With My Family. Rock brought it to Sundance and it's directed by Steven Merchant. Not to mention the crews involved in every movie. Quote

Stiva Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 I hope that the person playing Vince adopts his sleep cycle and rampant steroid abuse as a form of method acting. Quote

I want to see Thor play bass for Metallica. The cost of the CGI to make Andre as big as Hulk claims he was when he slammed him (and tore every muscle in his back, three days before Andre died, at Wrestlemania 3 in the Superdome Brother, Jack, Dude!!) is gonna be astronomical!!

Matt D Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 Ed Harris needs to hit the roids to play Verne. Quote

I want to see Hogan wrestling in front of Elvis in Memphis, beating Antonio Inoki to death in the ring and then reviving him with CPR, partying with John Belushi after Wrestlemania 2, slamming Andre and then visiting him on his deathbed the next day, the whole nine yards.

Johnny Sorrow Posted February 23, 2019 Report Posted February 23, 2019 Todd Phillips is directing this. It's going to be a comedy. Quote
