The movie, which will be directed by Joker‘s Todd Phillips, is set to tell the story of Hulk’s rise to fame.

“This movie is going to be a really fun project. As you can imagine, the preparation for the role will be insanely physical. I will have to put on more size than I ever have before, even more than I put on for Thor,” he revealed.

“And then there is the accent as well as the physicality and the attitude. I will also have to do a deep dive into the rabbit hole of the wrestling world, which I’m really looking forward to doing.”

He also said it’s “going to be fun to see” himself in Hulk‘s iconic moustache.

“I’m going to be blonde, probably balding and with a ‘tache.”

“The project is deep in development. Todd Phillips and I met to chat about it maybe a year or two ago. We talked about the idea for the film, which I think was going to be a TV series at one point. There were a few different ideas about what portion of his life it was going to be set in, so we spitballed about what it could be and what I thought it might be. Thankfully, they ran with a few of those ideas and the script is in the process of being written – but Hulk Hogan is still quite a way away,” he went on to say.

He’s also going to star in this anticipated sequel!

Hulk Hogan has settled his sex tape lawsuit with Gawker for $31 million, the New York Times has confirmed.

According to court documents, the settlement comes eight months after courts awarded Hulk Hogan $140 million in damages after the site posted a sex tape of him.

“After four years of litigation funded by a billionaire with a grudge going back even further, a settlement has been reached,” Gawker founder Nick Denton wrote in a blog post. “The saga is over. Hogan’s retirement will be comfortable.”

“As with any negotiation for resolution, all parties have agreed it is time to move on,” David Houston, Hulk‘s lawyer, said in a statement.

Hulk Hogan has taken to Twitter to respond to the news that Gawker.com is shutting down following his victory in a lawsuit against the website.

The 63-year-old former pro wrestler seemingly took credit for the site’s fall after he was awarded $140 million from the media company. “They messed with the wrong guy brother HH,” he said.

Hogan sued the website for invasion of privacy after it posted a sex tape featuring the wrestler.

Univision has announced plans to buy Gawker Media, which includes websites such as io9 and Gizmodo, for $135 million. The company plans on shutting down Gawker, though.
