15 Kick-Ass Movies Starring WWE Stars Coming In 2019

11. My Spy

Starring: Dave Bautista

Release: TBC

Back when Hulk Hogan was legitimately trying to make it in movies, he realised the comedy potential in seeing a hulking big guy playing roles that would put him together with kids, as in Mr Nanny. The Rock recognised the same thing and made Tooth Fairy and The Game Plan. In all cases, the key was also the wrestlers-turned-actors was their comedy timing (or lack of it), so it's not that surprising that Dave Bautista is following in their footsteps with his own comedy.

The large Guardians Of The Galaxy star earned praise as Drax in the MCU and showed particular flair for comedy and he's now set to star in My Spy, according to The Hollywood Reporter, which will "tell the story of a hardened CIA operative (Bautista) who finds himself at the mercy of a precocious 9-year-old girl, having been sent undercover to surveil her family.”

Definite Kindergarten Cop vibes there, which is no bad thing as long as it's written well, which it should be with Peter Segal directing and co-writing.
