A Former WWE Superstar Wants To Play Friday The 13th's Jason Voorhees, And I'm 100% On Board

Jason voorhees in Friday the 13th Part VI.

It appears that pro wrestlers transitioning into film acting is becoming a more common occurrence in Hollywood. As yet another superstar is promoting an upcoming film, he's making it known he'd love to play a major horror icon. Personally, I think it'd be a perfect casting, and I'd love to see a former WWE star like Braun Strowman play Friday the 13th's Jason Voorhees.

The beautiful thing about a character like Jason is that it's all in the look and the physical performance. I'd argue that the role requires less acting skills than perhaps when The Miz wanted to play Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat 2, and if we're talking about casting someone who's both imposing and intimitdating, Strowman is a no-brainer. With that in mind, let's dig into what the actor said, and how this wish could one day be a reality.
