Many consider Dave Bautista the greatest wrestler-turned-actor of all time, and it’s easy to see why. He can play the funnyman, the action hero, or dramatically belt out amazing monologues, whereas his contemporaries, John Cena and Dwayne Johnson, have only displayed mastery over one of these roles (although Johnson is attempting to disprove that with October’s The Smashing Machine). However, there are only a handful of films that allow him to showcase his dramatics, as most films either kill his character off too soon (Glass Onion, Dune Part 2) or he doesn’t get as much screen time (Spectre, Blade Runner 2049). But M Night Shyamalan’s Knock at the Cabin is one of the few films that gives Batista the chance to display his dramatic acting chops from start to finish.
