Braun Strowman, known as the Monster of All Monsters, has secured a significant movie role following his release from WWE. At 41 years old, Strowman is currently serving a 90-day non-compete period but is already pursuing new ventures beyond professional wrestling by signing on to star in an upcoming live-action franchise.
Details of the New Film Project and Partnerships
The project is a collaboration between Seven Arts Entertainment and Crusher Films, with both companies co-producing the franchise. Adam Scherr, Braun Strowman’s real name, will take a lead role in this new film series. Seven Arts Entertainment, a longstanding film and music production company, made the announcement on July 11, 2025, highlighting their partnership with Crusher Films to bring this project to life.
Crusher Films is led by producer Max Zell, whose extensive experience includes involvement in film, television, and sports entertainment. Zell’s notable works encompass the sci-fi feature “Code 8” as well as documentaries such as “Ghostheads” and “RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop.” Additionally, Zell, alongside mentor Cary Woods of Independent Pictures, contributed to the development of Apple TV’s first unscripted series, “Home.” Through Independent Pictures, Zell also had a hand in producing well-known titles like “Scream,” “Godzilla,” “Rudy,” and
“So I Married an Axe Murderer.”
Financial Backing and Future Prospects
Although specific plot details and release dates have yet to be revealed, Crusher Films has reportedly raised up to $50 million to support the new project. This level of financing suggests a major production aimed at establishing a lasting franchise in the entertainment industry.
With Braun Strowman, a former WWE Universal Champion, preparing for this transition into Hollywood, the announcement marks a promising new chapter in his career that extends beyond the wrestling ring.
