The coming week is reportedly going to be a big one for Liv Morgan as she’s all set to feature in a major Hollywood movie role that’s to be officially announced. In an unlikely manner, this major move has already been addressed on the latest bygone episode of Monday Night Raw and reports also suggest that the disclosure of the film and the role will be done on the coming edition, next Monday night.
But Deadline has provided an update on the whereabouts of this major film that’s likely to make Liv Morgan a bonafide Hollywood movie star. As per the source, the reigning tag team champion of the WWE has joined the cast of Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo, a dark crime thriller directed by Takashi Miike. This is the same renowned Japanese filmmaker behind cult classics like Audition and 13 Assassins, and the movie will go on the floors in May.
That being said, it’s easy to assume that Liv Morgan won’t possibly be making WWE appearances from next month onward, with PWInsider Elite already reporting that she is set to have a “big week” ahead with the official announcement about her film project dropping. Plus, this role was described to be a type of opportunity that “could cement” the WWE Superstar as the next “it girl” in Hollywood if things fall well.
