Standing over 7 feet tall, The Great Khali was a formidable figure in Adam Sandler's The Longest Yard (2005). With his role as Turley, a soft-spoken giant with a fearsome presence on the field, he brought authenticity to the prison football team. The role focused on his uniqueness in physicality and comedic timing, making him a darling of the fans despite his limited time on screen. His Hollywood appearance gave way to other international wrestlers to make it into Hollywood.
