Top WWE star eyeing Hollywood roles
Added 2023-04-15 00:26:18 +0000 UTCCody Rhodes could be headed to Hollywood. Or Vancouver, or wherever they film things these days.
Sources familiar with the situation claim that the WWE WrestleMania main eventer made the most of this time in Los Angeles and had some meetings regarding potential roles in film and television. There was discussion of him being linked or particularly interested in the Johnny Cage role in an upcoming Mortal Kombat movie, which The Miz has also been angling for. There was also discussion regarding a connection to a potential upcoming Zelda film.
Even prior to WWE, Rhodes had good connections to the TV and movie realm outside of wrestling. Cody Rhodes appeared on seven episodes of Arrow with Stephen Amell, as well as an episode of Warehouse 13. In addition, he’s appeared Go Big Show, Rhodes to the Top and WAGS Atlanta.

Personally, I can see Miz fit better as Johnny Cage, but I definitely want Cody to play Link in a movie.

2023-04-15 10:40:51 +0000 UTCI didn’t really care for the recent MK movie but hopefully they up the fighting and make it an actual tournament. I could see him as Cage but Miz has more of the “Hollywood attitude” that Cage rocks in his character.

2023-04-15 00:56:49 +0000 UTCNeither of them are getting the role of Johnny Cage but I could see Rhodes in the Legend of Zelda movie, because I fully believe he would take any role in it.
