AJ Lee has booked a new gig in Hollywood.
Deadline broke the news on Wednesday that the former WWE Divas Champion is joining the cast of Sacramento. This road-trip comedy will also star Kristen Stewart, Michael Angarano, Michael Cera, and Maya Erskine.
The synopsis for the film reads, “Rickey (Angarano), an energetic and free-spirited young man, and Glenn (Cera), his long-time friend who’s settled into domestic life. On an impromptu road trip from Los Angeles to Sacramento, their past comes into focus and questions their future.”
According to the report, Lee and Iman Karram will portray “best friends and ex-professional fighters” who help teach two of the main characters about their own relationship. The film is set to start production this spring.
Since leaving WWE in 2015, the 36-year-old authored her own memoir before co-writing the screenplay for Blade of the 47 Ronin, which is currently streaming on Netflix. She is also an executive producer for WOW – Women of Wrestling.
