Shara Magomedov Eyes Film career
Shara Magomedov got his first taste of acting when he recorded scenes for a movie earlier this year.
'Bullet' traveled to Los Angeles to portray a murderer for a short film that still has to be released.
It is currently unclear what the film is mentioned, but it is clear that the middleweight of UFC has enjoyed its experience on the set, because he hopes that Dana White and Paramount can help him launch an acting career.
“I think that as soon as Paramount and the UFC work together on a movie, I might be the first on their casting list,” Magomedov told Red Corner MMA
“I know that there are many interesting characters who participated in films. Such as, Michael Bisping, Randy Couture. I know a lot of UFC hunters who already did it, but I will be their most important pirate. So let's go.
“Thanks to Dana White and the entire UFC, I believe that we are about to warm up the earth [laughs].
“As far as I know, Paramount is a large company, and they make great films. I think this collaboration can lead to some very interesting films, in which we participate. Ordinary fighters can become super heroes.
“I played a role in a Hollywood film like a superhero who turned a person into an iguana.
“So I think there will be many films. It's up to the screenwriters and all those who make films.
“I think Dana White will participate and do something. He can be an investor if he loves a certain plot based on a book or a saga. I think he will also make things happen in this respect. He has many ideas and projects in his mind. So we can make it far together.”
Shara Magomedov says he would like to dive deeper into acting after the news of a deal between the UFC and MediaGigant Paramount.
“I think that as soon as Paramount and the UFC work together on a movie, I might be the first on their casting list,” he told Red Corner MMA.
