WWE and AEW stars have several movies hitting theaters and streaming services over the next few months, and fans now have plenty of dates to mark on their calendars. Drew McIntyre, CM Punk, The Rock, MJF, Adam Copeland, and Liv Morgan are all involved in Hollywood projects, with several releases coming before the end of 2026.
Drew McIntyre is up first with Disney’s animated movie Hexed, which will hold its world premiere screening on November 12 at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood. The movie opens in U.S. theaters on November 25, followed by its UK release on November 27. McIntyre and Pat McAfee both have voice roles in the film, and the head of Disney Animation has praised McIntyre’s performance.
McIntyre also has roles in the upcoming Highlander reboot and The Last Druid, with additional movie projects in the works. Neither film has a confirmed theatrical release date yet.
CM Punk is next on the calendar with Netflix’s Guarding Stars, which premieres November 18. Punk plays Doghouse, a member of the security team protecting an action movie star. The film stars Leighton Meester and Jared Padalecki, and fans already got their first look at Punk in the movie.
AEW World Champion MJF also has a movie arriving before Christmas. Violent Night 2 hits theaters on December 4, with MJF joining David Harbour in the action-comedy sequel. MJF also appeared in the independent movie The Floaters, which received a digital release earlier this year.
The Rock returns to theaters on December 25 with Jumanji: Open World. Dwayne Johnson reunites with Kevin Hart, Jack Black, and Karen Gillan for another installment in the franchise. Johnson also has Fast Forever scheduled for March 17, 2028, where he will reprise his role as Luke Hobbs. He’s also working on Lizard Music, the unusual film that required him to lose a significant amount of weight. That project doesn’t have a confirmed release date.
AEW’s Adam Copeland will appear alongside Jason Statham in The Beekeeper 2, which is scheduled to open in theaters on January 15, 2027.
Liv Morgan also has a movie waiting for an American release. Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo opened in Japan on October 23, 2026, and has screened at several film festivals. NEON is handling the U.S. distribution, but there is still no confirmed domestic theatrical date.
Meanwhile, Street Fighter, featuring Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and Hirooki Goto, has already been in theaters since October 16. According to Box Office Mojo, the movie has earned $99,249,281 worldwide.
There are still several movie dates waiting to be announced, but the schedule is already packed.
