Is anyone surprised that WWE wrestler Hornswoggle beat out the competition to take over the Leprechaun film franchise? Fans of Leprechaun, Leprechaun 2, Leprechaun 3, Leprechaun 4: In Space, and Leprechaun in the Hood (not to mention Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood) will be saying goodbye to Warwick Davis–currently starring in his own HBO show–and hello to a new greedy green slasher of hot young teens. Get your hands on Hornswoggle’s gold, and you might suffer worse than a typically grisly death. The new breed of victims might end up on the wrong end of a punishing piledriver. Don’t expect a lot of changes to the Leprechaun legend, though. Hornswoggle already shares the Leprechaun’s love of hot babes and maybe a little doobie–as seen when the tiny titan partied down with some WWE divas and Snoop Dogg:
