With people talking about a potential feature film, Finlay has his own ideas on who could play him best. .

As shown on Tiger King, John Finlay was Joseph Maldonado-Passage, aka Joe Exotic’s second husband.

The two met in 2003 when Finlay came to work for him.

In 2014, Finlay and Maldonado-Passage had a three-person wedding with 19-year old Travis Maldonado.

Finlay came back to work at the zoo and started a relationship with the secretary, who then ended up having his baby. !

When talking to CNN, Finlay said either “Shia LaBeouf or Channing Tatum” could play his role if a film were to be made
