Haye Halts Hollywood Ambitions

Bad news for movie fans worldwide. David Haye has called a halt to his Hollywood ambitions, apparently to re-focus himself on boxing full time.

The heavyweight boxer admitted he still dreams of becoming a big name in Hollywood one day but has had to put such aspirations on the back burner of late after requiring reconstructive surgery on his shoulder.

Speaking at the Hilton rooftop bar at London's Wembley to celebrate the transformation of the iconic arch at Wembley Stadium connected by EE, he exclusively told BANG Showbiz: ''I haven't had time for acting lessons, it's all been about getting my body back into condition.

''I've had a massive operation on my shoulder, reconstructive surgery, so it's taking a while trying to get that back into good working order.

''That's my priority, Hollywood can wait. That's without doubt still my dream. Boxing has a shelf life but you can go into acting at any age.''

The 33-year-old fighter previously revealed he would love to star as a villain in a motion picture.

He said: ''I'm looking into a move into action films once my boxing career comes to an end - hopefully voluntarily so it won't get ended by someone else.

''I want to be a baddie, to be honest. That would be my ultimate role so I can really get all 'eviled up' for it.''

David Haye attended a party at the Hilton rooftop bar to celebrate the transformation of the iconic arch at Wembley Stadium connected by EE. Multi-coloured LED floodlights have been installed as part EE's partnership with the stadium.

I have seen his debut acting performance in a low budget production starring Kevin Mitchall and Micheal Kastidis.

He seems to have acted in a lot of boxing movies lately. Usually big budget affairs with lots of hype but pretty crap with dreadful action sequences.

Hahahah catch!

A sad day for Hollywood, but maybe they'll wait for you David.

Lucky for David these's no tax on talking.....

Has anyone broke the news to Spielberg yet? He is sure to be devastated.

He's aware. The latest Predator film was put on hold upon hearing this devastating news.

And they've had to cancel the latest in the resident evil franchise, as they have no one who can get 'eviled up' like the hayemaker.

So hard to find a convincing baddie these day.

Deniro and Pacino can rest easy for another year or too..

So he's not restarting the Harry potter franchise? shame, was really looking forward to him as potter.

David Haye v Sylvester Stallone coming soon on ppv

Damn, I was hoping for a 'Super-fight' with Antonio "Magic Man" Tarver. Not making the best fights, is killing the sport.

Shame, I was looking forward to seeing him in Hamlet at the Theatre Royal....

He turned down the part because he doesn't smoke.

Shame.... could have been fun: "one may smile and smile, and be well wicked, eviled up villain"

Would anyone in Hollywood actually be arsed putting Haye in a movie? His reputation over there is nothing special. Frequently see him called the Gayemaker of the Hayefaker ater his heavyweight career.

Eastenders might be a more realistic target.
