Hulk Hogan did
The Rock did
John Cena did
Batista did
Even Macho Man has Spider-man

Yet movies seemed to pass Steve Austin right on by. He tried with The Condemned I guess? He was in The Expendables but I honestly don't even remember him being in that movie.

Or does he just want to chill out on his ranch and sell beer. I guess that ain't all bad.

Looks like he lead a bunch of direct to DVD schlock a decade ago. I guess nothing else came up.

There's a role in X-Men that's perfect for that kind of thing

This. He's mentioned on his podcast he enjoys acting, but isn't too crazy about being in movies either.

I think one big missed opportunity (that I'm not aware of at least) was that Austin would probably shine better if he could improvise dialogue more. Like for a comedy or something.

Although I suppose the atmosphere in an arena talking to a microphone is still pretty different compared to ribbing other actors on a set so who knows.

The Expendables made $83 million more than the Longest Yard

Austin is living on a giant ranch sipping wine and beer all day making bank off royalties. He's probably coming back for a match at Mania again soon cause his comeback this year was all accounts a huge success

Austin did a few B movies. Usually he plays the cop or a person that needs a gun. Shame he can't pull off comedy like Cena or Batista.

I'm now picturing Austin as Charles Xavier poring a beer out on a passed out Magneto.

I dont think he tried very hard. As in he only did a couple movies and they were pretty much all after he retired. The other wrestlers did movies and wrestling simultaneously for the most part except Randy savage.

He lacked size and or definition, especially by the time he was acting. If your wrestler in the action movie can't take off his shirt and impress, what good is he?

Jesus I didn't even realize that was Austin in The Longest Yard until now lol. I guess I didn't recognize him without his goatee.

Also fun fact that I learned while looking at this: Guard Papajohn is played by Michael Papajohn lol

The rock doesnt act as himself in every movie and Batista has many more lines in guardians than vin diesel does
