Is The Hulk Hogan Movie Officially Cancelled?
It is possible that the Hulk Hogan Movie might come to life again, though right now it has been put on hold. Todd Phillips Hulk Hogan Biopic director Todd Phillips spoke with Variety to reveal the status of the film, noting that it is not going to happen for him as he would like it to be. It is a huge change from what was originally thought about the Chris Hemsworth Hulk Hogan Biopic! Even with delays due to various challenges including the pandemic and ongoing strikes, many thought Netflix would still push the movie out to their platform! But that's no longer a real possibility for this Hulk Hogan Biopic.
What Made The Biopic Fall Through?
Even with the Movie being a compelling tale and a fascinating story, this film is no longer going ahead. While the initial project would have explored Hulk Hogan Origin Story and Hulk Hogan Rise to fame as a Professional Wrestler, it has now become clear that this might have presented problems in the eyes of fans, due to Hulk Hogan controversy!
What Was The Reason for The Cancellation?
In past years, Hulk Hogan faced significant controversy. In 2015, he faced Hulk Hogan Gawker Lawsuit stemming from the release of his sex tape. The case led to major fallout, and Hulk Hogan Controversy surrounding this scandal, so it's very possible it caused some worry from Chris Hemsworth and Todd Phillips Movie. It may have even made the studio more hesitant about continuing production, especially on a Netflix project!
Who Was Involved in The Cancelled Movie?
Fans will have to hold their breath and see how the project goes, since there has been a change! But if you are wondering who was in the project before it was delayed, the team that would have worked on the Hemsworth Hulk Hogan Biopic was a solid group, with Chris Hemsworth leading as the Professional Wrestler. It was intended that Todd Phillips direct the project.
Is There Another Hulk Hogan Project in The Works?
Yes! Although the Chris Hemsworth movie fell through, the project isn't entirely dead! This is because another film, Killing Gawker Movie, will focus specifically on the infamous case surrounding Hulk Hogan Sex Tape Scandal! Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, through their company, Artists Equity, have produced a film about Hulk Hogan's legal battle with the gossip blog. It might even feature Ben Affleck starring as Hulk Hogan, but casting has yet to be revealed.
Will This Film Be Similar to The Cancelled Chris Hemsworth Project?
Not quite. This will cover the scandal of Hulk Hogan, not his early rise. There may be some overlapping, but it is possible that it would delve deeply into the Hulk Hogan legacy, as well as the consequences of the Gawker Lawsuit! This is a very different take and a whole different movie than the earlier, Chris Hemsworth film, so make sure you follow any new releases of this movie, especially if it hits Netflix.
