It’s currently unclear what role Otunga will have on the show, which will premiere on August 17 on Disney+. Tatiana Maslany, Mark Ruffalo and Tim Roth will star in the series.
Otunga is a former WWE Tag Team Champion, and he was featured as a member of the Nexus. He also played an on-screen legal advisor before he shifted into non-wrestling roles as a commentator and a panelist. Otunga left the company in 2018. He has appeared in several TV shows and films in the past, such as Criminal Minds, General Hospital, and A Madea Family Funeral.
Other noteworthy wrestlers, like John Cena, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Dave Bautista, have crossed over into the world of superhero-based entertainment. Cena plays Peacemaker, Bautista has brought Drax to life in Guardians of the Galaxy, and Johnson will play Black Adam in the upcoming film about the character.
Update: Otunga commented on his involvement in a tweet on May 17; he stated that he “had to show of” his biceps, and he’s excited for everyone to see the show.
I had to show off my biceps for #SheHulk ?? I couldn’t help it! I can’t wait for you all to see it! @MarvelStudios @disneyplus @Marvel https://t.co/XvxtFgcXqE
