WWE Superstars often make the switch to Hollywood. Sports entertainment requires a performer to live their character inside and outside the ring, so it is only obvious that the top ones would want to make the switch. After The Rock, John Cena, and Dave Bautista, is WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns switching to Hollywood?

“It was tough for me because I had opportunities come my way in the last 8 months but because I wasn’t working I felt weird about trying to take on other opportunities when the mainstream of my income wasn’t being taken care of. I was at home because of the pandemic. I put everything aside, project wise, off until I got back to doing what I do with my day job.”
However, he is not snubbing the idea completely.
“I think Hollywood if the right opportunities come my way and it all works out, I would definitely be into it. There is nothing like creating and seeing the magic happen.”
The Tribal Chief is definitely not in a hurry to be an A-Lister. He wants to start small and gradually make his way up in the City of Stars.
“I think it would be a natural fit to work my way in a smaller role situation and learn as much as I can and gather as much info and possible and one day I could hold it down and be that lead guy.”
