Wade Barrett Lands Role in WWE Film, On Set Pic Included

May 3, 2012

Thanks to Gregory Bechtel for sending this in:

While watching the news for my local area it was reported that a new film entitled Dead Man Down was being filmed yesterday in Philadelphia. I then saw Wade Barrett in a quick screen shot with Terrence Howard, and it is featured in the pic below.

While the film has yet to list Barrett as a cast member on IMDB.com, the listing does note that the film is slated to be released next year.

We reported last week that WWE Studios is co-financing the film, which stars Colin Farrell.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
