Chris Hemsworth to play Hulk Hogan?

Chris Hemsworth to play Hulk Hogan?

Shirt-ripping wrestler Hulk Hogan has his eye on Aussie hunk Chris Hemsworth to play him in a new movie about his life.

The 60-year-old WWE legend told Toronto’s Cape Breton Post that he thinks the only star who could play him in a movie would have to be a worthy and experienced actor, naming the sexy Thor star as his number-one choice.

“I think we need a serious, serious actor that knows what he’s doing. You know who I thought would be good? That guy that did the action movie Thor,” Hulk said.

The wrestling star has not yet said when the movie will begin production, so fans shouldn’t expect to see Chris squeeze into Hulk’s tiny yellow budgie smugglers any time soon.

“The truth is… two kids that are writers in LA, hot young writers, they did a four-page treatment, and I’m telling you they nailed it. They nailed it like they were living in my shoes and I gave them the green light to go ahead and write the first pass,” Hulk explained.
