Vince McMahon has created WWE Films, which will bring wrestlers to the screen in genre movies, Variety reports. The slate of films include "The Condemned," an action film starring "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, "The Marine," starring John Cena, and "Goodnight," a horror film starring Kane. The films will cost up to $20 million, and the wrestlers have service contracts with WWE Films. On why he believes this venture will succeed, McMahon says, "We produce the equivalent of a two-hour movie on television … The storytelling process is similar, and this is a logical extension for our star power."
