Cathy Kelley set for a massive non-WWE project

WWE personality Cathy Kelley has landed a new non-wrestling role. She’s been cast in an upcoming movie, with new details emerging about the film’s title and other cast members.

She announced it herself on social media two weeks ago, but didn't provide any details as she wanted to keep it confidential. This will be her film debut. She’s no stranger to the camera, however, as she appears on RAW every week interviewing wrestlers backstage.

Deadline has reported that Cathy Kelley has joined the cast of the action comedy movie Karate Ghost, which is still in production. Michael Jai White, Natalie Zea, and comedian Bobby Lee will also be part of the film.

"Set in a town ruled by absurd karate law, the film watches as a lonely teen forms an unlikely bond with the ghost of his late father’s favorite action hero. What begins as a haunted mentorship quickly escalates into a fight for identity, legacy, and redemption. Rozon leads the cast as Johnny Maim, a washed-up ’90s action star who died tragically mid-stunt now trapped in the afterlife and hungry for one last shot at glory, with Gobbo playing grieving 15-year-old Bobby Brody," reported Deadline.
