CM Punk To Star In New Movie

CM Punk is staying busy.

It’s been confirmed that CM Punk will star in the upcoming movie Let’s Start A Cult. The film is produced by Dark Sky Films and will star comedian Stavros Halkia who also co-wrote the project.

Punk — credited as Phil Brooks, appeared in a new poster for the movie on August 22nd.

Director Ben Kitnick told MovieWeb that the film is a “wild, absurd comedy with heart.”

“It is a wild, absurd comedy with heart, balancing high-concept ideas with a broad comedic approach, as modern as it is a throwback. The film’s central characters are searchers, looking to quell life’s concerns by adopting a fresh belief system with like-minded outsiders. In hindsight, this really is symbolic of our experience making the film. It was a fiercely collaborative process, with cast and crew deadly serious about telling a delightfully unserious tale. I hope you have as fun of a time watching as we had making this, dare I say, ‘cult comedy.’”

CM Punk Wants To Team With John Cena

Back in the ring, CM Punk revealed at Fanatics Fest NYC that he’d love to team with John Cena before the 16-time World Champion retires. Punk said that while Cena has earned the right to do whatever he wants, selfishly he hopes that includes a tag team match sometime in 2025.

Although the pair have spent much of their careers as rivals, they have teamed together in the past. Cena and Punk last teamed together on the December 20th, 2013 episode of SmackDown to battle The Shield.

It’s been announced that CM Punk will return to the ring at Bash In Berlin to continue his rivalry with Drew McIntyre in a Strap Match.
