I definitely think there's a market for me in Hollywood: WWE star Sheamus
The WWE star Sheamus thinks he would be a fit in Hollywood as he looks different and gets recognized very easily.

London: World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) superstar Sheamus wants to start his movie career and says his dream role would be to play villain Venom in an 'Amazing Spider-Man' film.

The 36-year-old star has been inspired to launch a film career by his fellow wrestler Dave Batista's performance as Drax the Destroyer in the movie 'The Guardians of the Galaxy', femalefirst.co.uk reports.

"I watched 'Guardians of the Galaxy' and I thought Dave Batista did a great job, and Bradley Cooper was great as Rocket," he said.

"I always read comic books as a kid, I always remember Eddie Brock, who was Venom in the 'Spider-Man' comics, he was kind of a redhead. I'd love to play the role of Venom and Eddie Brock - Venom was one of my favourite characters... It would be a dream come true for me to star in the next 'Amazing Spider-Man' film as Venom," he said.

Sheamus has already had a few minor roles in films like 'The Escapist' and he thinks he definitely has something to offer Hollywood.

The WWE star, who is currently in Britain on the WWE UK Tour, said: "I definitely think there's a market for me to be in movies, because of what I've done in WWE. I'm recognisable, even if I'm out wearing a hat people always know I'm Sheamus from WWE.

"I do look distinctive with my red hair and I stand out a lot and I definitely would like to bring that to the movies. I like actors like Michael Fassbender, I think he's brilliant. I think Hugh Jackman is great too, look at the way he took the role of Wolverine and made it his. Robert Downey Jr. I'm a big fan of as well. It would ba an honour to work with any of those guys."
