Cody Rhodes isn’t finished with Hollywood, and it sounds like he’s already got more projects in the works. The WWE Superstar says he has a few things lined up that he can’t discuss just yet, but fans might not have to wait much longer to hear what he’s doing next.
During a November 11 interview with Adam Glyn, Rhodes was congratulated on his work in Street Fighter. Glyn then asked whether he had any other acting roles coming up or if he was auditioning for additional projects. Rhodes confirmed that he has several things on his radar, although he wasn’t ready to share any specific details. He also made it clear that he hopes to have some news within the next few weeks.
“I got a couple cool things on on the list. Nothing that I can spill the beans on right now, but I look forward to the next few weeks, maybe getting some of that out there. And hopefully I don’t make myself a liar when I tell you that hopefully the next few weeks we can share some.”
Rhodes didn’t mention any movie titles, studios or potential roles, so it’s unclear exactly what he’s working on. However, he’s made no secret of wanting to continue building his acting career while remaining one of WWE’s biggest stars.
As Ringside News previously covered, Rhodes discussed his Hollywood ambitions during an October 23 appearance on The Rich Eisen Show. He explained that he wants to continue pursuing acting opportunities without giving up wrestling, which he still considers his main career. His role as Guile in Street Fighter has already given him a major opportunity outside WWE. Rhodes also saw his role in the movie expand during production after the filmmakers decided to give him additional scenes.
Rhodes has also made it clear that WWE’s current approach allows him to take on outside projects without having to leave the company. That gives him room to continue wrestling while exploring more opportunities in movies and television. For now, Rhodes is keeping those potential projects under wraps. He isn’t promising an announcement on a specific date, but he’s hoping to share something within the next few weeks. With WWE still a major priority, it looks like he’s determined to keep both careers going.
What kind of Hollywood role would you like to see Cody Rhodes take on next, and how far do you think he can go as an actor while continuing his WWE career? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
