WWE Chief Content Officer Paul Triple H Levesque is stepping into the world of film productionthis time teaming up with Dwayne The Rock Johnson for a unique project centered around WWE Hall of Famer Andy Kaufman.
Ringside News has learned that Triple H is listed as an executive producer on Andy Kaufman is Me, a documentary from The Rocks Seven Bucks Productions that recently wrapped production. The film dives into Kaufmans eccentric world through a mix of archival audio, surreal reenactments, and in-depth interviews with those who knew him best.
Alongside Levesque, the documentarys executive producer list also includes David Letterman, with The Rock himself serving as a producer along with Dany Garcia, Hiram Garcia, and Brian Gewirtz.
One of the more fascinating elements of the project is its use of Kaufmans own personal recordingsoriginally intended for a book he never completed. These audio journals serve as the spine of the film and are creatively brought to life using puppetry.
The film also features appearances from Letterman, Carol Kane, Andys brother Michael Kaufman, and sister Carol Kaufman-Kerman, among others.
Kaufman was posthumously inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2023, and his legacy as a performance artist and boundary-pushing entertainer continues to inspire generations. This new project looks to offer an intimate, unusual look at Kaufmans mind, fittingly delivered by a team that includes both Hollywood and pro wrestling power players.
With Triple H now adding executive producer to his list of credits, WWEs fingerprints on mainstream entertainment continue to grow.
