10 UFC Fighters You Didn't Know Tried Their Hand At Acting
8. Anderson Silva
Anderson Silva has been sponsored by Burger King, turned up in a Bud commercial with Axl Rose, and has appeared on NCIS: Los Angeles (probably his most reputable credit to date). He's also appeared in Hell's Chain - a low budget action flick full of MMA stars. In Hell's Chain, he plays King Anaconda - the villain of the piece. It's cheese by any stretch of the imagination. He may have been king of the middleweight division for years, but he's clearly not king in the acting world. Still, he gave it a shot, and there's always that MMA thing to fall back on.
