WWE Star Liv Morgan To Make Film Debut in Samuel L. Jackson Thriller
WWE Superstar Liv Morgan is set to make her major film acting debut in the star-studded dark comic thriller titled The Kill Room. Among the notable cast members appearing in the film is veteran actor and Marvel Studios star Samuel L. Jackson. The film is being directed by Nicol Paone, who is known for helming the action comedy Chick Fight starring Bella Thorne and Malin Ackerman, as well as Friendsgiving with Kat Dennings. The film is based on a script by Jonathan Jacobson.
According to Deadline, Morgan is joining the cast of The Kill Room with an ensemble that also includes Kill Bill franchise star Uma Thurman, Justice League's Joe Manganiello, Maya Hawke, and Debi Mazar. The lead producers for the film are Jordan Yale Levine, Jordan Beckerman, and Jon Keeyes via their Yale Productions banner. Their recent films include the upcoming Code Name Banshee, which stars Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard's Antonio Banderas. The Kill Room centers on hitman Reggie (Manganiello), his crime boss (Jackson), an art dealer (Thurman), and their money-laundering scheme that accidentally turns the hitman into an overnight Avant-Garde sensation. Morgan is set to play an art purist who bemoans the vapidness of art dealers.
