Becky Lynch Joins Cast Of New FX Comedy Pilot 'Movers'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Becky Lynch is set to expand her growing Hollywood resume, as the WWE superstar has landed a co-starring role in a new FX workplace comedy pilot. According to a report from Deadline, the show is titled Movers. The project is an improvised comedy that will revolve around the chaotic lives of a moving crew. The pilot comes from creators Robert Ben Garant and Cathy Shim, who are best known for the hit Comedy Central series Reno 911. A Growing Hollywood Resume This new role is the latest in a series of major acting projects for Lynch, whose real name is Rebecca Quin. She is set to appear in the highly anticipated Netflix movie Happy Gilmore 2, which premieres on July 25. The Deadline report also notes she will soon appear in Alex Kurtzman's Star Trek series for Paramount+. These new roles build upon her previous acting work. She has made appearances on the Showtime drama Billions, performed stunts for the History Channel series Vikings, and portrayed music icon Cyndi Lauper on an episode of NBC's Young Rock. Outside of acting, her 2024 memoir, Becky Lynch: The Man: Not Your Average Average Girl, became a New York Times bestseller, cementing her status as a crossover star.

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - APRIL 20: Becky Lynch is introduced before her match with Lyra Valkyria for the Women's Tag Team Championship against Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez during WrestleMania 41 at Allegiant Stadium on April 20, 2025 in Las Vegas, Nevada More Lynch's ability to land these significant roles is a direct result of her meteoric rise in WWE. In 2018, she transformed from a popular superstar into "The Man," an anti-authority character that became the hottest act in the entire wrestling industry. Her incredible popularity led to her being part of the first-ever all-female main event of WrestleMania in 2019. At that historic event, she defeated both Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair to win the Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships simultaneously. Juggling Two Demanding Careers Lynch's success in Hollywood comes as she remains one of the top champions in WWE. She made her return to the company at WrestleMania 41, where she teamed with Lyra Valkyria to win the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship. Shortly after, she turned heel on Valkyria and captured the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship from her former partner. The hectic schedule of a WWE superstar is demanding, and adding a recurring role to a television series would present a significant challenge. The key question now is what a potential series pickup for Movers would mean for her future as a full-time wrestler. Lynch is currently scheduled to defend her championship against both Lyra Valkyria and Bayley in a Triple Threat match at the upcoming Evolution premium live event on July 13.
