Ronda Rousey to Star in Her Own Biopic 'My Fight/Your Fight'
UFC fighter Ronda Rousey landed what could be her biggest hit yet. The athlete-actress will star in her own biopic based on her New York Times best-selling autobiography "My Fight/Your Fight," Variety reports.
The MMA star "was always keen in starring" in the movie adaptation of her book, Variety notes, adding that it's unusual for a movie studio to make such a deal with a relatively unexperienced actress, however Paramount is equally impressed by her abilities in the Octagon as well as her onscreen credits.
Previously Rousey has had big screen roles in "The Expendables 3," "Furious 7" and
"Entourage," appearing as herself.
On Saturday she impressed sports fans after knocking out opponent Bethe Correia in 34 seconds during a match in Brazil. In March she went viral after a 14-second knockout fight against Cat Zingano.
