CM Punk has been cast in a new movie.
The WWE superstar will be joining the cast of the comedy film “Let’s Start A Cult,” which will debut on October 25. Punk was cast under his real name, Phil Brooks. The movie, directed by Ben Kitnick, features Stavros Halkias, Wes Haney, Eric Rahill, Katy Fullan, and Daniel Simonsen. Joe Pera, Ethan Suplee, and Tom Papa will also make appearances.
A description of the movie can be found below.
Having missed out on his cult’s long awaited ritual suicide, an obnoxious loser teams up with his bogus ex-messiah to rebuild their doomsday commune. Traveling together through middle America, the constantly-bickering duo induct a military wannabe, a mentally unstable mom, and a mysterious foreign hitchhiker into their cult… but will this family of outcasts fulfill their transcendent destiny, or decide this life might be worth living after all?
Punk has previously appeared in the Starz series Heels, as well as the horror film, The Girl on The Third Floor. He signed with Paradigm Talent Agency in June.
