    He entered Pro Wresrling when he was like 31 and became a star when he was 36.
    He started movies when he was 37 and by the age of 45 became a Hollywood star.
    Its never too late ro start a career and never too late to peak in your career.

    Batista is definitely the best actor to come out of the WWE. He can play anything from a scary bond villain to a creepy cult leader or even a sweet guy who does comedy. His range is crazy.

    Don’t think many people expected his acting career to take off how it did and by that I mean not just direct to dvd, actual top Hollywood level movies.

    • @Matt-cr4vv
      @Matt-cr4vv Před 7 měsíci +1

      I think the potential of what his career could become was different from the past because by the time he left to pursue acting full time Dwayne Johnson had broken through to demonstrate that it was possible to have some drawn out success transitioning to Hollywood, although he wasn’t anything near what he did become in terms of rising to Hollywoods highest paid actor. So I think by that time people could eee that it was possible to succeed with it but obviously there was no realistic expectation that he’d become a major level name in Hollywood.
      But I think in hindsight people see his career as more of a complete positive than how things actually were because until Guardians he wasn’t landing much of any roles and the ones he did land were those direct to dvd movies. And even after he got guardians most of the roles he did have after were small budget stuff until 2017 or so where he started being in bigger movies outside of guardians alone. I remember hearing an interview he did where he spoke about getting advice about not taking a ton of B movie roles because if he took too many of them then he’d relegated to only being considered at that level and how he struggled like he did because he stuck to that as much as he could and how hard it was when money wasn’t flowing in to not take paying projects as he tried to push to get those better roles and how guardians saved everything.
      The thing that I find the coolest about his acting career isn’t that he was able to become a known star like he did but that he’s taken an approach to expand his range as an actor in the roles he takes and how he had sought out more challenging roles that will help him grow in his talent over seeking the biggest budget roles where he would probably be set in one type of role and just pump out the same stuff generally all the time for the check. That’s largely what occurred with the rock, and I don’t fault it, but once he really hit that mega level he hasn’t really taken many roles that expand his range but primarily been a similar type of character in most of the projects he does that are the biggest money stuff. I don’t fault that but it’s neat to see a Batista who has taken a path of almost appreciating acting as an art and wanting to have a wide range rather than chasing a path of simply cashing in as much as possible.

    Batista earned his chops and I'm a huge, HUGE film buff... everything from silent film to the Hollywood Golden Age to today AND I will tell you with 100 percent certainly that he will go down in film history as bring in one of the greatest opening sequences in all of film, which is in Blade Runner 2049 and even though it's a small role, the presence he brings to that role and character is brilliant. It's very somber and underplayed and it's of a man willing to die for his convictions. Actually the delivery in how he under acts it reminds me very much of John Wayne in Red River when he promises to kill Monty Clift's character. Great stuff and Blade Runner 2049 is the best film of its decade, the 2010s.
