10 UFC Fighters You Didn't Know Tried Their Hand At Acting
4. Antonio Silva
You can never tire of that photo of Bigfoot Silva standing over the vanquished Alistair Overeem like a conqueror. It's less clear how to feel about him showing up alongside Roy Nelson in the next Scorpion King movie however. Unlike Nelson, Silva isn't exactly known for his personality. He might work as a big scary monster... scratch that. He definitely works as a big scary monster. He also seems like a decent guy, but there isn't a lot of hope for an acting career for him. That said, there's always a need for big strong guys in Hollywood, and it appears this particular franchise has run out of wrestlers to use.
