Although she is not currently appearing on television due to an injury, one WWE star has landed a new film role.
Sonya Deville, real name Daraia Bernato, suffered a torn ACL and is expected to be out for 9 to 12 months. While away, Deville settled a gun charge for one count of unlawful weapon possession – a handgun without a permit.
Deville told the Tampa Bay Times that she is filming a movie called ‘DNA Secrets’ in Florida, where she will play a police officer.
According to the story, “The movie is about an antique store owner who ‘opens a Pandora’s box’ by gifting DNA kits to relatives. Several family members were killed and the store owner realized she could be next on the list. As she gets closer to the truth, she discovers that she is at the center of a situation that has put her entire family in danger.”
As shown below, Deville discussed the similarities and differences between being on WWE television and acting.
