If those rumours about Sheamus being blighted by a persistent neck injury have any truth, then it's a probably sensible for him to start pursuing opportunities in Hollywood.

His first gig is The Buddy Games, a Josh Duhamel-directed comedy movie in which a group of friends challenge each other to what IMDB refers to as "a wild assortment of absurd physical and mental challenges".

Sounds awful, but the cast is actually half-decent (as long as you define half-decent as "people you've heard of before"). Duhamel himelf will star as one in the lead roles, opposite Olivia Munn and Dax Sheppard.

Sheamus' character is named "Thursty", though, which kind of raises the alarm bells. You just know there's going to be a really lame running gag about him being Irish and drinking too much alcohol.
