Jack Black as Wrestling Priest!
No originality in Hollywood? Well, actually that's totally right, apart from the very odd moment where something totally left field and magical pops up, and I think this might very well be one of those.
Jack Black is set to star in a movie about a Mexican Priest who moonlights as a Wrestler to save an orphanage! Woa! Hold up...take a second to re-read that. Wrestler?! Coming Soon have it:
Jack Black will topline, Jared Hess will direct and Mike White and Hess co-script a new Nickelodeon Movies film. Variety says Black will portray a Mexican priest who secretly moonlights as a masked wrestler in order to save an orphanage from closure.The untitled project, inspired by a true-life story...
Well hopefully it won't turn out to be a full on kids-fest, but more in the mould of School of Rock which was for a much wider audience. Could this be a shining light in the darkness of remakes?

What was the name of that short-lived TV show where the father was a teacher or principal who moolighted as a masked wrestler? Maybe hollywood isn't so original afterall, although I guess in this case it's real life.

Jack Black is MY MAN, and wow - a latin priest in a mask and tights! It will be a profound religious experience for me. I want to hear (and see) more, it can't get here fast enough. Of course, I do laugh in church and while having sex, too!
