Cody Rhodes already has plenty on his plate as the Undisputed WWE Champion, but his schedule now includes Hollywood as well. While still performing weekly for WWE and preparing for WrestleMania, Rhodes is also stepping into the world of film after landing the role of Guile in the upcoming Street Fighter movie. Rhodes spoke about how he plans to balance both worlds during an appearance on Complex Graps. Instead of seeing acting opportunities as something that could pull him away from WWE, Rhodes said the company actually supports talent taking on projects that can elevate the brand. He explained that WWE leadership sees the benefit when its top stars branch out into other areas of entertainment. Rhodes also made it clear that WWE remains the priority, especially while holding the companys top championship. Still, he believes he can manage both careers at the same time. When the conversation turned to Street Fighter, Rhodes sounded genuinely excited about playing Guile and joked that the character fits him perfectly. Rhodes also laughed about the over-the-top nature of the Street Fighter universe, pointing out how strange the tournament concept might look from Guiles point of view. Even with the humor, Rhodes said he took the role very seriously because of the passion of Street Fighter fans and the legacy of the franchise. Rhodes added that filming the project was an enjoyable experience and said he believes fans of the franchise will appreciate what the movie delivers. Rhodes continues to carry WWEs top championship while stepping into a major film role, something that doesnt happen often in wrestling. The real test will be whether he can keep dominating inside the ring while expanding his reach outside of it. Do you think Cody Rhodes can successfully juggle WWE and Hollywood at the same time?
