Settlement Reached in Hulk Hogan Sex Tape Documentary Lawsuit
A settlement has been reached in a lawsuit against a documentary regarding the late Hulk Hogan’s infamous sex tape.
A month after a federal judge dissolved a temporary restraining order issued against the release of the documentary “Video Killed The Radio Star,” which had footage from the Hulk Hogan sex tape, it appears a settlement has been reached. The show is currently streaming on platforms including Apple TV, Amazon Prime, and Google Play.
According to a press release, Woltz Films and Bubba the Love Sponge have settled with Terry McCoy and Nicholas Bollea, who represented Hulk Hogan’s estate in the lawsuit, trying to block the release of the documentary.
Woltz Films issued the following statement:
“The parties in the matter of Terry McCoy and Nicholas Bollea, as Personal Representatives of the Estate of Terry G. Bollea (aka Hulk Hogan), v. Bubba the Love Sponge® Clem, pending in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, have signed a settlement agreement. Woltz Films, LLC, which intervened as a co-defendant in the action, was also a party to the settlement.
The settlement follows the Court’s September 22, 2025, Order dissolving the Court’s previously entered Temporary Restraining Order and denying the Estate’s injunction to prevent the publication of the documentary entitled VIDEO KILLED THE RADIO STAR.
Produced by Woltz Films, Video Killed The Radio Star sheds light on how the unlawful publication of a video showing Bollea’s intimate relations with Clem’s wife occurred during a volatile era in Tampa’s radio war landscape. The film is available for purchase or rental on the streaming services Apple iTunes, Amazon Prime and Google Play.
“Reaching this settlement allows all parties to put the legal process behind them and ensures the film can be viewed in its intended form,” said a spokesman for Woltz Films.”
