Braun Strowman's non-WWE project has veteran excited (Exclusive)

Former WWE star Braun Strowman recently expressed his desire to play the iconic Jason Voorhees from the Friday the 13th franchise. While there is still no official confirmation, veteran journalist Bill Apter is already supportive of the idea of him taking on the role.

After parting ways with the Stamford-based promotion, it appears Braun Strowman is venturing into different projects, like the recently announced show Everything On The Menu. He has also expressed interest in taking on the mantle of Jason Voorhees, which could become a reality given the rumors about the franchise being revived in Hollywood.

Speaking about the reports on The Wrestling Time Machine hosted by Mac Davis, Bill Apter stated that the ex-WWE star certainly fit the part. He said:

"That's a possibility, you know. I stay up, about 1 AM. Every morning, my Roku TV, and I watch two different horror stations of the worst Grade B and C movies I have ever seen. And they are so bad that I can't get away from them. Torture and chains and all... But I think he fits the part, he looks like it."

He stated:

"Oh, Friday the 13th. Jason (...) [I would] gladly shave this beard off to play that character (...) There may be some talks about it with people that I know and my agency.
