Biographical movies are one of the most marketable genres of cinema at present. From the Bohemian Rhapsody to Oppenheimer, a plenitude of biopics comes in movie theatres annually. Most of these films have done exceptional business at the box office. That said, WWE superstar Seth Rollins recently claimed that Suicide Squad fame Jared Leto would be the ideal actor to play his biopic.

Ahead of his title defense at WWE Crown Jewel, Seth Rollins appeared on The Mythical Kitchen’s “Last Meals” chat show. During a rapid-fire round, host Josh Scherer asked the champion to name a Hollywood actor who he would like to play his biopic. Answering the question, Rollins said that he feels Jared Leto would be the perfect choice to play “Seth Rollins” if a biopic about his life ever came to fruition.

Furthermore, he name-dropped Aquaman actor Jason Momoa. The 37-year-old added that Momoa is a fantastic actor. However, he would likely be a better choice to portray Roman Reigns, per Rollins. Comparisons are often drawn between Momoa and Reigns due to the physical and facial resemblance the two men share.

May be Jared Leto. Yeah, may be Jared Leto. I'd say Jason Momoa, but he is more of a Roman Reigns kind of vibe. Yeah, little islander-type vibe.

The Visionary, Seth Rollins, has his eyes set on Hollywood, selecting Jared Leto to potentially portray him in a biopic. Rollins is already making strides in the industry, having filmed scenes for Marvel Studios’ “Caption America: Brave New World,” where he portrays King Cobra from Marvel Comics’ Serpent Society.

Seth Rollins believes he could never be the face of the company

The current and inaugural World Heavyweight Champion, Seth Rollins, is one of the most accomplished wrestlers to have ever stepped foot in WWE. After making a name for himself in the indie scene, The Visionary joined the Stamford-based promotion in 2010. Since then, he has cemented his legacy as the top star of the company, winning multiple championships.

Despite reaching the peak of success, Seth Rollins once felt that he had never been in the same position as Roman Reigns. The Tribal Chief has been a major needle mover and the face of the company for over a decade. Speaking in an interview with Ariel Helwani via Fightful, Rollins admitted to dealing with imposter syndrome throughout his career.

I just feel like, in some ways, I've never gotten my just due. I've never been the guy. You know, I've never been the one on the marquee at WrestleMania. It was John [Cena], it was Roman [Reigns].

The 37-year-old stated that it always gnaws at him that he never headlined a WrestleMania or was ever represented as “The Guy.” The Visionary was the 2019 Royal Rumble winner. Unfortunately, he didn’t get the opportunity to headline The Show of Shows that year.
