[edit] WWE Studios
Since 2003, WWE has produced its own film productions. Instead of focusing on wrestling movies, WWE produces movies that are non-wrestling related. WWE and Vince McMahon were credited for production of the films The Scorpion King, The Rundown and Walking Tall all starring The Rock.
WWE Studios has since released movies such asSee No Evil, a horror movie starring Kane and The Marine, an action movie starring John Cena. WWE has also noted that Stone Cold Steve Austin has agreed to star in three movie deals, the first being The Condemned.
[edit] WWE Classics
In 2004, WWE announced a new video on demand service for digital cable users, allowing subscribers to the service access to matches in the WWE Video Library. The programming is broken into four sections and features classic shows, matches, and highlighting past wrestlers.
