Alongside John Cena, another wrestler trying to make it in the big, wide world of movies is Stone Cold Steve Austin. He made a great impression in 2007's The Condemned and we're soon to see him lock horns with Stallone and Statham in The Expendables. First up is low budget action thriller, The Stranger, which follows the attempts of a psychiatrist (the insanely hot Erica Cerra from A Town Called Eureka)who is trying to track down an escaped amnesiac. We learn that every time he learns his identity that his brain then wipes him memory clean to protect him from some by-gone trauma. Austin and Cerra team up, mysteries are unravelled, double crossings ensue. Oh and Stone Cold beats a lot of people up.
The movie takes itself too seriously, the action is strictly small-scale, the whole thing looks bland and the central mystery just isn't that interesting. But Austin's a step above the competition like Cena and Hulk Hogan. And that's a good place to build an action career from.
