Paul Walter Hauser Says He’s Attached to Play Mick Foley in Limited Series

The Emmy winner disclosed in a new interview that the project remains early and has not been taken to market.

Overview

  • Hauser confirmed his attachment to portray WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley in a biographical limited series during an interview with The Stunner, as reported by Cageside Seats.
  • He emphasized that the series has not been shopped to buyers, signaling an early development stage without a named network or distributor.
  • Hauser said the portrayal aims to tell Foley’s broader life story rather than focus solely on the Mankind persona.
  • Drawing on recent ring experience, he noted he has worked roughly 25 matches across MLW, GCW, ROH, and independent shows, per CageMatch.
  • He indicated a willingness to perform hardcore brawler elements and mentioned having borrowed some of Foley’s moves, and he named Eric Young, Dustin Rhodes, Sami Zayn, and The Miz as wrestlers he hopes to work with.
