Aug 3, 2015 6:37 PM CUT With her 34-second [victory](http://time.com/3981426/ronda-rousey-ufc-champion-bethe-correia/ "undefined") over Bethe Correia Saturday, Ronda Rousey once again proved she’s at the top of her game as the UFC Women’s Bantamweight champion. But as Rousey maintains her dominance in the world of sport, her star is also rising in the movie industry, with a handful of acting credits to her name in the last couple of years. In her newest role she’ll play a character she knows a thing or two about: herself. _Variety_ [reports](http://variety.com/2015/film/news/ronda-rousey-biopic-autobiography-my-fight-your-fight-1201553460/ "undefined") that Rousey will star in a film adaptation of _My Fight/Your Fight_, her bestselling autobiography released earlier this year. Rousey will co-produce with Mary Parent (_Godzilla_, _Pacific Rim_), with a screenplay to be adapted by Mark Bomback (_War of the Planet of the Apes_, _Insurgent_). Rousey mostly recently appeared in _Expendables 3_, _Furious 7_ and _Entourage_. She’s also set to star opposite Mark Wahlberg in the CIA flick _Mile-22_ and to helm the action thriller _The Athena Project_. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3982655/ronda-rousey-movie-autobiography/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3982655/ronda-rousey-movie-autobiography/"},"headline":"Ronda Rousey Will Play Herself in a Movie Adaptation of Her Autobiography","datePublished":"2015-08-03T18:37:51.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:22:57.833Z","description":"Next opponent: Box office","url":"https://time.com/3982655/ronda-rousey-movie-autobiography/","keywords":["movies","Newsfeed","Ronda Rousey"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt157ecfdf75b79bea/69885da5cd68482f850a1173/ronda-rousey1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eliza Berman","jobTitle":"Berman is a senior editor at TIME.","url":"https://time.com/author/eliza-berman/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt157ecfdf75b79bea/69885da5cd68482f850a1173/ronda-rousey1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Ronda Rousey stands in her corner before facing Bethe Correia during the UFC 190 event on August 1, 2015 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.","caption":"Ronda Rousey stands in her corner before facing Bethe Correia during the UFC 190 event on August 1, 2015 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.","creditText":"Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC--Zuffa LLC/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/movies/","name":"movies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3982655/ronda-rousey-movie-autobiography/","name":"Ronda Rousey Will Play Herself in a Movie Adaptation of Her Autobiography"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Ronda Rousey Fights Bethe Correia At UFC 190","description":"Ronda Rousey Fights Bethe Correia At UFC 190","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/zJhkTwVI/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2015-08-02T18:04:27.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/zJhkTwVI.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/3982655/ronda-rousey-movie-autobiography/","duration":"PT41S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/3982655/ronda-rousey-movie-autobiography/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
