What actors/actresses would you cast as wrestlers in movies about the history of pro wrestling/sports entertainment (before you argue, there IS a difference)?
Brad Pitt would be a great Shawn Michaels. He has that look to him...
Clea Duvall would be a good groupie...if only for a single nudity lesbian scene...mmmmmm...Clea Duvall...
I dunno about the wrestler-movie idea, but I have to agree with you on the Clea Duvall lesbian idea...yummy....who would you want her to be with though?
Jordana Brewster? Emmanuel Chiqui (sp)?
Hmm...wouldn't be the first time the 2 worked together. I'd go for some more of her and Natasha Lyonne, though. But I'm A Cheerleader! is a work of art...even if there aren't any tits.
That's a tough question, since any actor playing a wrestler would need the physical attributes as well as the looks and voice. I suppose some LOTR-style trick photography could be used to make Andre the Giant look convincingly big.
I can see Patrick Warburton as Hulk Hogan, but he'd have to spend a year in the gym.
I suppose the wrestlers who act (Hogan, Piper, Ventura, etc.) could play themselves, but where's the fun in that?
Probably be easier to cast the managers. How about Pauly Shore as the Mouth of the South? He could play an annoying, shrill little wuss everyone would like to beat up.
The question I'm really pondering, however, is who would play Mean Gene?
Gene Hackman of course.
Well, maybe Hulk Hogan could be played by himself, there was this guy who had a cameo in Return of the Killer Tomatoes who looked like Scott Hall, though he probably couldn't act...
I'm not sure.
