9 Wrestlers Who Took On Movie Roles You Won't Believe

1. Kevin Nash Played Tarzan - Magic Mike (2012)

When you come with a nickname like Big Sexy, you have a certain rep to protect and Kevin Nash did just that with two of the most unexpected and possibly unearned movie appearances ever.

Nash has history with movies, thanks to his huge size: he played the Super Shredder in the second Turtles movie, played a steroid-popping prison guard in The Longest Yard and made an appearance as a villain in The Punisher. And despite having no dance skills whatsoever and the mobility of a particularly heavy cement truck, he also got a starring role in the Magic Mike films as veteran stripper Tarzan.

Anyone who has watched said films will realise why he's so out of place: as the others girate and body pop their way towards their tips, Nash lumbers about with all the grace of a wardrobe. It is truly a sight to behold.
