Not a WWE movie, a movie that's more than likely going to trash WWE.

IF this story was told from Chris' point of view, attempting to chronicle his "decent into madness", and not the average prosecution of the wrestling business as a whole....I would be interested to see it. That's the only thing still bugging me about the entire deal. At what point did Chris Benoit lose hope? At what point did destroying his family and himself actually become a GOOD idea? There's enough judging of the man, I was and still am a fan of Chris Benoit the WRESTLER and would REALLY like to get some of these answers if I can.

Liam Neeson as Vince McMahon would've been awesome.

I can`t think of anyone that should play Benoit...except maybe Kevin Sullivan(lol).If they have to make a movie they could just do a documentary that would be good but really doubt that WWE would give up any footage.I was a big Benoit mark for a long time and what happened is so crazy and confusing it`s hard to believe any of it really did come to pass.

This movie will never see the light of day. And unless it has a huge budget, there is no chance anyone you've ever heard of would be cast in it, anyway.

Christopher McDonald HAS to play McMahon.
Posted By: Green man (Guest) on January 17, 2012 at 05:15 PM
Rob Schneider should play Benoit, the movie is going to suck anyway.

Holy crap Jim Breuer DOES look like Benoit!
Posted By: Jlevysan (Guest) on January 17, 2012 at 05:19 PM

Hey wait a minute. This is not the real me. Spelling my name backwards does not make you me! I love the WWE and your post is stupid.

So I guess you didn't want Silence of then Lambs, Red Dragon or Hannibal. Maybe every single movie about a war then? Idiot.
