Michael Pena has played everyone from Cesar Chavez to Luis in “Ant-Man” … but the one role you WON’T see him in is heavyweight boxing champ, Andy Ruiz.
… and why?
“Because I’d have to gain a lot of weight, my wife would kill me!”
Don’t get it twisted, Pena has a ton of respect for Ruiz and thinks he has a great story to tell … but Ruiz is 270 lbs — and Pena is wayyyyy smaller.
természetesen, Ruiz shot to superstardom by knocking out undefeated heavyweight superstar Anthony Joshua — despite being a HEAVY betting underdog.
What’s interesting … Pena — who’s been in a TON of movies — says he doesn’t think Ruiz’s story is ready for the big screen yet because he’d like to see the guy win a few more fights first.
Na, who SHOULD play the new champ?
… wonder if Gabriel Iglesias is available!?
