I don’t think he was in Ed Wood. Wasn’t it Wood’s Plan 9 that he was in?

Tor Johnson was in Plan 9 From Outer Space. George Steele played Tor Johnson in 'Ed Wood'

I think he was in the movie “Ed Wood”, a Tim Burton film which was about the life of Ed Wood. The film “Ed Wood” had as a primary story line the making of Plan 9 From Outer Space. Steele played Tor Johnson, who was the actor that played in Plan 9.

Critics now agree that Steele was robbed of the “Best Supporting Wrestler Character” Oscar that year.

To be accurate, former wrestler George “The Animal” Steele was in the movie “Ed Wood” playing former wrestler Tor “The Super Swedish Angel” Johnson in the movie “Plan 9 from Outer Space”.

One of Johnny Depp’s (and Tim Burton’s) better films, IMHO.
