- Joe Exotic's husband Dillon Passage says he'd like to see Zac Efron play him in a film based on Netflix series Tiger King.
- The 23-year-old, who married Joe in 2017, also says he thinks there's a spin-off "in the works".
Tiger King star Dillon Passage says he wants actor Zac Efron to play him in a live action film of the Netflix series. During a video interview with People the 23-year-old, who married Joe Exotic in 2017, said: "I mean, I've been asked this question multiple times."
When asked why he was so sure about Efron, he responded: "Blue eyes, dark hair, good-looking. I mean, what else can I say?"
He also spoke briefly about follow-ups to the Netflix series, telling People: "I'm not sure if I can speak about it publicly... but I know that there is something in the works, so stay tuned."
Dillion is one of Joe's three husbands from the documentary, along with John and Travis. While Travis tragically passed away in horrific circumstances during The Tiger King, we also know that John got remarried to the zoo's receptionist. Dillon, however, is apparently still married to Joe.
Joe is currently serving a prison sentence on animal cruelty and a murder-for-hire charges, but the seventh and final episode of the rollercoaster of a documentary suggests the couple is still very much together.
A fan recently commented asking whether Joe and Dillon were still together, to which he replied, "I’m still married to Joe but my social media platform isn’t used for any Joe things. Thank you though."
He added to another fan, "I am not ashamed. It’s no secret that Joe is my husband. All of my friends and family know. I don’t care for the spotlight. And frankly, I don’t really care what people think about me or my life.
"I’m living my life for me and it isn’t going to be out on pause because of the situation Joe and I are in. My social media is not an outlet to please any other people. But thank you for sharing your feelings."
