As a seasoned gamer and storyteller who has spent countless hours immersed in the world of wrestling, I can’t help but feel a sense of exhilaration at the prospect of not one, but two Hulk Hogan movies gracing our silver screens. This is like the ultimate tag-team match between Hollywood heavyweights!
Despite the 2024 movie lineup boasting several intriguing real-life narratives, there remains ample opportunity for these stories to thrive within Hollywood. One upcoming project that aims to take flight is the speculated Hulk Hogan film by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, centering around the WWE icon’s legal feud with gossip website Gawker. With this fascinating premise, it’s no wonder this production has sparked interest, and tensions could rise further as reports suggest that Hogan himself has expressed his thoughts about the proposed project.
At present, it seems that Hulkamania and his group are taking the issue lightly, according to TMZ’s sources close to Hulk Hogan. The term “indifferent” is used to describe their stance towards this matter. Upon closer examination, the report indicates that Hulk Hogan has no association with the project whatsoever. This situation could be advantageous or disadvantageous; particularly given the rumors surrounding the director of Argo being considered for the lead role.
It’s interesting to note that the movie about Hulk Hogan seems to share some similarities with the upcoming Chris Hemsworth biopic, although the latter is yet to materialize. The film based on Hogan’s lawsuit over a leaked sex tape has been in development since 2018, and recent attention has only served to keep the project buzzing.
As a passionate gamer, I can’t help but find Hulk Hogan an intriguing character that could make for some amazing screen adaptations. It’s no surprise to me that both productions are taking their time to get things right. However, the project starring Chris Hemsworth as Hulk Hogan seems to be facing some hurdles, more specifically due to business complications. Unfortunately, Netflix lost the rights in late 2023, which has put a damper on things for now.
The unfortunate aspect is that development has left the project featuring the ‘Furiosa’ star and potential director Todd Phillips in a state of suspension. However, the positive angle is that it appears to be maintaining Hogan’s interest and participation; thus, there’s a possibility it could overtake Ben Affleck’s project and make its debut first.
These advancements could benefit both Affleck and Hemsworth, as a hint of rivalry sparked by these projects may motivate them to give their best efforts right up until the end. Instead of only having one Hulk Hogan film, we might now have two going head-to-head in a relatively short time frame.
Given the dramatic nature of this sport, it makes perfect sense that such a competition is happening. Hulk Hogan, with his illustrious career, serves as an emblem for top WWE wrestlers who’ve parted ways with the organization. There’s ample narrative to be shared among all participants. The race isn’t over yet, and the upcoming projects could become even more thrilling due to this competition.
Currently, both movies featuring Hulk Hogan are still in their initial stages of production, so it’s important to stay attentive and see which one progresses first and most significantly. In the interim, if you’re eager to catch a glimpse of the classic 1985 documentary titled “The Hulkster: Hulk Hogan“, this option is accessible among other contemporary WWE content that you can explore with a Peacock subscription.
