First (And Hopefully Last) Look At The Marine 3 From WWE Films

The Marine 3, Miz

Here’s our first look at THE MARINE 3 from WWE Films, starring The Miz.

We at THN clearly love films. But like Doris Day, some of us harbor a secret love, namely pro-wrestling. Even more secret would be our enjoyment of movies STARRING wrestlers. Truly terrible films. Once in a blue moon you get someone like Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, a breakout star who left the spandex-clad world of rasslin’ to thrive in Hollywood. But most of the time, films starring wrestlers stink more than their tights at the end of a long week (At some point, we really must do a detailed examination of these hilarious anomolies). A good example would be THE MARINE franchise, a series of bloody awful flicks produced by WWE’s film wing, starring their own grapplers. The first one had John Cena, a HUGE star and face of the company who enjoyed minor success in cinemas. The second had Ted DiBiase Jr (son of 80s in-ring legend The Million Dollar Man) assume the marine mantle, to less success.

Here is the teaser for the third in series. This instalment stars Mike ‘The Miz’ Mizanin, a wrestler who is about as popular as a surprise turd in a sock. Action films don’t get more generic than this and this will surely top anyone’s list of ‘Sequels Nobody Asked For.’ Should be good for a laugh, though.

John is a gentleman, a scholar, he’s an acrobat. He is one half of the comedy duo Good Ol’ JR, and considers himself a comedy writer/performer. This view has been questioned by others. He graduated with First Class Honours in Media Arts/Film & TV, a fact he will remain smug about long after everyone has stopped caring. He enjoys movies, theatre, live comedy and writing with the JR member and hetero life partner Ryan. Some of their sketches can be seen on YouTube and YOU can take their total hits to way over 17!
