Exclusive: Wme has signed David Goggins, the retired Navy Seal and author of Can’t Hurt Me, his self-published book that details his transformation from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a U.S. Armed Forces icon and one of the world’s top endurance athletes.
He will be repped by a team of agents supporting his interests in film, among other areas, we’re told.
Goggins’ tale is ripe for a Hollywood treatment with his part-memoir/part-self-help book published in December about how an obese kid from Indiana survived an abusive childhood to became the only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy Seal, Army Ranger and Air Force Tactical Air Controller (hint: a lot of grueling training). He since has set records in several ultra-endurance events — Outside magazine named him “The Fittest (Real) Man in America.”
The book meanwhile has sold 900,000 copies...

Josh Brolin has offered his contribution to the viral 10 Year Challenge but with a twist, showing the development of Thanos over the decade while dropping a harsh reference to the finale of Avengers: Infinity War.
The Avengers: Endgame star took to Instagram with two images of the Mad Titan. One pic shows him as the big purple conqueror we know from last year’s Marvel megahit, and the other one – allegedly the Thanos from 10 years ago – is a play on that infamous photo of Dwayne Johnson rocking a turtleneck sweater and fanny pack in his younger days. In the caption, Brolin as Thanos reflects on his embarrassing fashion choices, before ending his message on a dark note:
“Wow. It’s been ten years. I look at myself back then and I can’t even believe it: no discipline, that hair, even the necklace. Haha. I don’t know what I was thinking.
