Is Cody Rhodes on his way back to Hollywood to portray an iconic video game character?
Casting news and rumors have been hot and heavy in recent weeks for the upcoming Legendary Pictures movie Street Fighter, based on the ultra-popular Capcom fighting game franchise.
While it’s been confirmed that WWE Superstar Roman Reigns will be playing the role of Akuma, it appears that he might be joined by one of his greatest rivals on set in Cody Rhodes.
According to Nexus Point News, Rhodes is in talks to play Guile in the upcoming video game movie adaptation.
Guile is one of the most iconic characters in Street Fighter history. Originally portrayed by Jean-Claude Van Damme in the original live-action Street Fighter movie back in 1994.
WWE losing two of their top stars for a period of time might not be great for the company, but with Reigns’ part-time schedule, it might not be too bad.
