Yesterday it was announced Chris Hemsworth will play WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan in a biopic about Hogan’s pro wrestling career.
Helmsworth and Eric Bischoff will both be producers, with Hogan as Executive Producer and also serving as a consultant on the film.
PWInsider has provided an update on the film and says while Netflix is “very high” on the film they have not yet done a screenplay as the project is still very early in the overall process.
The film will be written by John Pollono (Strong) and Scott Silver (The Joker) and once a script is agreed on, then production will begin. As of right now, no one else has been confirmed for the film aside from Hemsworth.
With the news of Hulk Hogan’s biopic in the works, Rusev is already throwing his name in the hat to play Iron Sheik, Sgt. Slaughter, Big Boss Man, Vader, or Nikolai Volkoff in the film. Iron Sheik responded Rusev could play Volkoff, but “only one Iron Sheik show the Earth who make that Hollywood blond humble.”
