WWE (pro wrestling) Studios has entered the Christian movie business with The Resurrection Of Gavin Stone. Based on the preview packed with Christian manosphere cliches, it appears that WWE Studios has thoroughly researched their target audience. As Scott Heisel at UPROXX explains in Shawn Michaels Loves Single Moms In New ‘The Resurrection Of Gavin Stone’ Trailer:
…Shawn Michaels plays Doug, a former biker who has found Jesus and is now a mechanic with a good samaritan program called Cars For Single Moms. (If this was Attitude Era Shawn Michaels, “Cars For Single Moms” would have a whole different meaning.) He is opposite Brett Dalton playing the film’s title character, who pretends to be a devout Christian in order to woo the pastor’s daughter.
They even got the leading lady’s age right in casting. The pastor’s strong independent (and severe) daughter is played by 34 year old Anjelah Johnson-Reyes. However, perhaps because it was created by outsiders to Christian culture, there doesn’t appear to be the ritual tearing down of married Christian fathers.
