Fan CastingWho Betta Than Kanyon?

Based on the life of one of professional wrestling’s most underrated superstars, Chris “Kanyon” Klucsartis tells in his own words his journey and downfall in and out of the “squared circle”. Kanyon (as he is widely known) details his determination and persistence in becoming a professional wrestler while hiding a deep secret: he was gay. In an environment where exhibiting extreme masculinity is indirectly required, Kanyon was forced to put on a guise of machismo while keeping his double life private from everyone in his life. This secret consumed Chris’ everyday life. Having to cover his tracks everywhere he went, Chris’ mental health began to deteriorate and triggered him to lash out at people closest to him. These events eventually led to his unfortunate demise. This tragic biopic intends to open up viewers’ awareness to the realties of homosexuality in sports and how hiding your true self can do a lot of damage. Kanyon will always be remembered as “The Innovator of Offense” and as a pioneer of inclusivity in the world of professional wrestling.
