Cody Rhodes [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/cody-rhodes/]is now conquering the wrestling world as the top babyface. He has had a successful career in WWE and is presently regarded as the most powerful world champion in the wrestling industry. Not only that, but it appears that The American Nightmare is on his way to Hollywood, as he will make an appearance in the new film Naked Gun. Paramount Pictures has announced that Cody Rhodes will make a surprise appearance in their upcoming film, Naked Gun, due for release next year. The film is expected to include several notable celebrities, including Liam Neeson, Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, Kevin Durand, and Danny Huston. The movie is now generating a lot of buzz, and fans can’t wait to watch it. The film will be released in theaters on July 18, 2025, giving fans a whole year to be ready to see a terrific cast come together for this major movie. Naked Gun will be directed by Akiva Schaffer and written by Dan Gregor and Doug Mand, both of whom have worked on several successful films. The movie is now being produced by MacFarlane and Erica Huggins, who are well-known names in the industry. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/cody-rhodes-6.png] So far, it has only been revealed that Cody Rhodes’ part in the film would be minor. According to sources, the WWE World Champion will make a brief but significant cameo appearance, and we will have to wait and watch how things play out. As we all know, Rhodes has a lot of talent, and this will be the best method for him to showcase it. Entering Hollywood from WWE is tough for everyone, and The Rock has set a terrific example of how to carry off such a significant transition. Regarding The Great One, it appears that Rhodes is not yet finished with him. CODY RHODES CALLS OUT THE ROCK BEFORE SUMMERSLAM The connection between the Rhodes family and The Bloodline has a long history. In an interview with ESPN, Rhodes mentioned this background and claimed that he was prepared for his big bout against Solo Sikoa at SummerSlam [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wwe-news-solo-sikoa-vs-cody-rhodes-likely-result-stated-by-real-life-bloodline-star-reasons-explained/]. Rhodes said that he had previously fought the genuine Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roman-reigns/], and that he could defeat the pretender Solo Sikoa as well. Moreover, Rhodes mocked The Rock [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-rock/], saying that if he gets out of bed to become the next Tribal Chief, he was ready to take him down as well. This might be a significant indication of what will happen at SummerSlam, as there is always a possibility that The Great One comes back and ends the big Championship reign of Cody Rhodes. Only time will tell what WWE is planning for the fans and we just need to wait and watch until then. Are you excited to see Cody Rhodes in Naked Gun? Let us know in the comments below. 

Cody Rhodes, the current undisputed WWE Champion, will appear in a major paramount film that will be released in 2025.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Cody Rhodes: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Wife and More</b></h2>
Cody Rhodes was at one point probably the biggest star on the AEW roster, despite its ever-expanding horizons. <span style="font-weight: 400"> He is a professional wrestler currently signed with WWE as he is renowned as the American Nightmare. Despite being the son of the legendary Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes, Cody did not get off to a dream start in WWE, but he made a comeback in 2023 and since then has popularized himself as the top babyface in the company. </span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Cody Rhodes’ early life</strong></h2>
Cody Rhodes was born on June 30, 1985, in Marietta, Georgia, United States to the legendary WWE Superstar Dusty Rhodes and Michelle Rubio Rhodes. Considered a legend in wrestling, Dustin formed a major part of the National Wrestling Alliance and the World Wrestling Federation for over a decade. After making a mark as one of the prominent wrestlers of his time, he also earned respect by training new talent.

Meanwhile, Cody's brother, Dustin (Goldust) is also a wrestler, and both siblings have proudly followed their father's footsteps. He is currently signed with AEW and, over the years, has also worked with other organizations like WCW, WWE, TNA, and AEW. Rhodes also has two sisters named Teil Gergel Margaret and Kristin Ditto. Speaking of his educational qualifications, he completed high school at Lassiter High School.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Cody Rhodes' wife and children</strong></h2>
Cody Rhodes met his wife Brandi Rhodes, born Brandi Alexis Reed. In 2011 while working for WWE and the couple tied the knot in September 2013. Before Cody, his father met Brandi during a training session and seemed quite impressed with her green eyes. In 2015, Reed made headlines as the first Black woman ring announcer at WrestleMania.

However, her career graph resembled that of her husband's at one point as in 2015 she was also released from WWE, and following that she joined AEW for a brief period. Meanwhile, it was in June 2021 that the wrestling couple welcomed their daughter, Liberty Iris Runnels.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Cody Rhodes' net worth</strong></h2>
As per Pinkvilla, Cody Rhodes enjoys a net worth of $8 million. His salary details are kept under wraps, but it is believed that he earns over $0.5 million annually from the company. Rhodes has made many other small investments, like in gyms, to earn some extra income. He also takes home a good amount because of his endorsements with brands like WWE Shop, Mattel Creation, Migsmedia, and Fanatics.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>All about the wrestling career of Cody Rhodes</strong></h2>
</div>
July 16, 2007 marked Cody Rhodes' debut in WWE as he fought against Randy Orton in the prime-time show Raw. It was in September that he claimed the world tag team title with his partner Hardcore Holly while Rhodes also went on to win many championship titles after forming a tag team with Ted DiBiase Jr.

One of the prominent moments in his wrestling career came in 2008 when he formed a faction named Legacy alongside DiBiase and Orton. Despite forming partnerships with different wrestlers, Rhodes failed to find a proper footing in the world's biggest wrestling promotion. In 2013, he also formed a team with his elder brother Dustin, and the two defeated <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roman-reigns/">Roman Reigns</a> and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/seth-rollins">Seth Rollins</a> to win the WWE Battleground 2013, followed by a victory in the WWE Tag Team Championship.

In 2014, the wrestler rebranded himself as Stardust, a title used by his father at some point in his career. However, despite the accolades, Cody Rhodes was not satisfied with his role in WWE and requested to leave in 2016. Following his departure from the company, AEW saw his massive potential and signed him. After giving him a new look and an excellent character, Cody Rhodes looked evergreen. He was also the Executive Vice President of the promotion.

He held the AEW TNT Championship twice in 2020, losing to Brodie Lee and Darby Allin. However, on December 25 at the Holiday Bash episode of Rampage, Rhodes defeated Sammy Guevara to win the TNT Championship for a record 3rd time. On February 15, 2022, Rhodes left AEW.

It was a golden period for the wrestler as he participated in various promotions, including ROH, Impact Wrestling, etc. Meanwhile, it was a homecoming for Rhodes after six years as he participated in WrestleMania 38 and defeated Seth Rollins to capture all the headlines. What followed was an impressive performance by the star at WrestleMania 39 to challenge Roman Reigns for the title.

However, he failed to create a history and lost the marquee match. It was not the end of the story for the icon as the odds were in his favor to work his charm and defeat Reigns at WrestleMania 40.
<div class="jsx-45ea8ad8a1b58c7c">
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Cody Rhodes’ current WWE contract</strong></h2>
Wrestling icon Cody Rhodes made a stunning comeback to WWE in April 2023 after defeating Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 39 and since then he has been the focal point of discussion in the company.

However, no information regarding the financial terms and other conditions has been disclosed.

Cody has a very giving heart and has done his fair share of helping society. During the pandemic, he released a new line of American Nightmare T-shirts to be sold as merchandise and announced that the profits from the sales would be directed to the relief of COVID-19 patients.

In 2017, following a match, Cody auctioned off his boots and donated the money to Austin Pets Alive, an organization that takes care of stray dogs and other pets. He also donated the money that came in from the online Twitch tips. All the dogs that were available for adoption on the show found homes following that match.
