WWE Superstar Jade Cargill Will Make Acting Debut In Jonathan Majors-Led Action Thriller 'True Threa

Jade Cargill, who is the plot of WWE Friday Night SmackDown, for very obvious reasons, will make her acting debut in the upcoming film True Threat, opposite Jonathan Majors.



Cargill is no stranger to being in front of cameras, as she does so every week when she laces up her wrestling boots and takes out her opponents with her "Jaded" finisher on SmackDown, but in the upcoming film True Threat, she will flex her acting muscles on the big screen. 

Deadline exclusively reports that Cargill is the second big name announced for the Harlem-set action thriller directed by Gerard McMurray (The First Purge, Burning Sands) and produced by Alexis Garcia's CAT5 with Charlamagne Tha God, Basil Iwanyk (John Wick, Nobody), and Karen Kinney's under her new banner, Southland Stories.

The Film's Plot Describes A Movie All About Vengeance

According to the website, True Threat follows Special Forces operative Vernon Threat (Majors), who returns home and wants justice for his murdered son at the hands of Harlem's Apollo Kids gang. Threat infiltrates The Carter (yes, the same Carter from New Jack City) that is controlled by the gang and fights his way floor by floor, taking out boss after boss until he confronts the gang's leader, who also happens to be his former mentor, Shadow. 

In the film, Cargill will play Meeka, a key lieutenant in the Apollo Kids and one of the film's main villains. She will control the red light district in The Carter and also operates as a "power broker" in the building. 

Per Deadline, the role will see Cargill "in an intense, physical and highly stylized performance space that builds on her athletic background."



We can't wait to see Cargill in action.
