Dave Bautista could not be an expert wrestler with the WWE, however that’s simply high-quality since his performing profession has actually taken off. From the massively profitable Guardians of the Galaxy franchise at Marvel (and Disney) to motion comedies just like the upcoming Stuber with Kumail Nanjiani, the 50-year-old performer is maintaining himself fairly busy. Should the Fast and Furious franchise ever come knocking on his door, nevertheless, Bautista gained’t reply it. That’s as a result of, as he instructed his followers on Twitter, he doesn’t suppose they’re any good.
As identified by IndieWire, with the information of John Cena’s casting in the principle franchise (presumably to interchange Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who has his personal spin-off now) might very properly lay the groundwork for Bautista’s involvement. After all, he’s yet one more wrestler-turned-actor. However, he didn’t take to the fan casting’s suggestion that he play the villain to Cena and Johnson’s characters. “Thank you for your consideration,” he tweeted with a few vomit emojis. The tweet additionally included a hashtag that spelled out, “I’d rather do good films.”
As of this writing, neither Johnson nor Cena have publicly responded to Bautista’s touch upon social media. And to be sincere, they most likely gained’t. Considering the sheer quantity of drama that Johnson’s ongoing feud with Vin Diesel has drummed up, each on-line and apparently on set, he most likely isn’t concerned about taking over a brand new combat with one other actor.
