Chris Hemsworth is set to play Hulk Hogan in the upcoming bio-pic about his life, but all may not go as planned as there seems to be a huge bump in the road with the making of the film.
Chris is one of the biggest box office attractions in Hollywood. He is most notable for playing the role of the mystic god of thunder, Thor in Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. Hemsworth was next slated to star in Hulk Hogan’s biopic, however he revealed in a recent interview that it might not be happening.
Hulk Hogan was the biggest star in the golden era of wrestling and the top marquee attraction for Vince McMahon’s WWE. His American Hero gimmick became a rage during the late 1980s and early 1990s with Hulkamania running wild all over the wrestling world. Till this day, fans get excited at the sight of Hulk Hogan whenever the WWE Hall of Famer makes sporadic appearances on WWE television programming.
Hulk Hogan did speak on his biopic as he said it was being made in a Netflix movie with legendary actor Chris Hemsworth who signed on to play The Hulkster. The movie was speculated to be in the works for a long time, but it looks like now the project could be in jeopardy.
The Thor actor revealed in a Vanity Fair interview that he would taking an extended hiatus, further revealing on his National Geographic series Limitless that he is 8-10 times more likely to develop Alzheimer’s.
He said: “Yeah, it’s like one in a thousand people…or one in 10,000. I can’t remember. But eight to 10 times more likely. Since you told me that, I feel like my memory’s getting worse. It’s a placebo effect—or it’s taking place!”
We will have to see how this goes as time moves on.
