Hulk Hogan's wrestling icon has left behind an inheritance that is immensely problematic and impossible to ignore. Perhaps one of the most recognizable figures in professional wrestling, Hogan was the main player during the 1980s (his 1988 match with Andre giant However It boasts crazy records of American viewership). Since then, things have fallen downhill, with a controversial scandal after another piling, culminating in the lawsuit of an unwanted Gauke and exposure to Hogan's racist mindset, cementing his decline in public eye.

Hogan's inheritance as a legendary but deeply contrasting public figure (which also made some very suspicious decisions that adversely affect the wrestling sphere) is, for better or worse, fuel for a large Hollywood biopic budget. As a result, Hulk Hogan's biopic with Chris Femsworth was set on a Starwar, as the wrestler was developing the longest time before being lifted from Netflix last year. First announced in 2019, this unclean biopic attracted Todd Phillips ("Joker" and His catastrophic tracking, "Okerok: Foley for two") attention shortly thereafter, with Hogan itself acts as one of the producers. "I love what we tried to do, but it won't gather for me," Philips said Diversity In 2024, offering directly but unclear judgment, while stating that his priorities were transferred after The explosive, unexpected success of his crime thriller in 2019, Joker.

Although the details of this unused biopic remain meager, it was supposed to follow the promising Hogan's rise in fame in the eighties of the last century (as opposed to his recent lawsuits/scandals) and rely on the uneven aspects of Pro Wrestling. What exactly happened here, and why did this long -standing project abruptly give up?

Hemsworth, best known for playing Thor in Marvel's film universe, proved time and again that his allure as a performer darkens the roles that only channel his solid physicality. However, Hogan's biopctic asked an actor who could take the challenge of such a physically sought after role and Hemsworth seemed to be a real fit for such a dedicated performance. The actor opened up for this "crazy physical" role during the 2020 interview with the total film (through IGN):

"This film will be a really fun project (...) As you can imagine, preparing for the role will be crazy physical. Wille I have to put a bigger size than I have ever had, even more than I put on Thor. There is an accent, as well as physical and attitude."

However, three years later, Hogan appeared on Insight with Chris van Vliet Podcast And he claimed that the project was abolished as a result of a "business glow" that occurred for reasons related to the agreement:

"They (Netflix) missed the rhythm in the contract. There was a payment that was not set at the right time. The script was incredible. Scott Silver, who wrote the script for" Okeroker "," Wolf of Wall Street ", (s) a bunch of other films, said:" This is the best thing I have written. " (...) spent about three years with this writer to go back and when I read it, it was very, very dark, if that were the right word.

Surely, Netflix announced the cancellation a year later, citing multiple delays as a result of the Kovid-19 pandemic and SAG-AFTRA strikes as an official reason for it. However, another project in the center of Hogan is currently in development, as Reports They have confirmed that the capital production company of Ben Affleck and Matt Damon has received a scenario for a film titled "Gaucher Murder" in 2024. So far there are no official casting updates or release date for "Gaucher's murder", but this may change in the near future.
