Sounds like a canadian version of Tomb Raider. Good luck to Trish, anyways.

That’s awesome for Trish. Before anybody thinks about making fun of the film, think of how big this is for her. Sure, it’s not going to be nominated for any Oscars, but she’s growing her “brand”, so to speak. It sure sounds much less embarassing than Tooth Fairy.
If she’s halfway decent in this, it could lead to better things. She’s beautiful, and she’s got charisma, which is more than I can say for the other divas that thought they would be succesful outside of wrestling. She’s doing great for herself. I’m proud of her.

Another step in Trish’s quest of world domination. LOL.
In all seriousness, I hope this turns out great for Trish and lead to greater things for her. Congrats Trish!!!

I can see Trish being good in a movie like this. Can’t wait to see it.

About time I gave up on seeing a diva staring in a movie I doubt it will be nominated for any Oscars but theirs been worse look at the movies Sable and Debra Let’s hope Trish does better.

To be honest, the name itself makes it sound like straight-to-DVD crap, but I’m interested in seeing her grow as an actor.
Ana_Nattie_rules – This sounds more like a non-biographical Domino rather than Tomb Raider.. I don’t see the correlation between TR and this, really.

Yeah, I’m expected this to be more of a “Coming soon to a Walmart near you!” kind of thing. Still, some low budget action movies have turned out okay. And I like to imagine with Trish’s business savvy she didn’t just accept the first stinker that fell in her lap. At the very least I’ll check it out online. Like wrestling, I’ll just put my brain on autopilot and enjoy the frivolous action for what it is.

um…. it doesn’t sound very amazing, we can probably find it in a bargain bin near us all soon
speaking of tomb raider i would love Trish to play Natla in a tomb raider film, ok shes not 7 foot tall but she kinda looks like her

First, I love the shirt and want one. This is not to be negative at all, but I’ve often wondered why wrestling stars rarely (not to say anything about The Rock and some others) score roles on big-budget, high exposure roles on a widely successful film, especially female wrestlers. I would love to see a wrestling star land a significant/starring role on a big director’s film and become a film star, especially since non-celebrities (regular folks) have done this. I know sometimes you need the smaller roles to build up to it, and I know oftentimes it’s chance, but I would love to see a wrestler pull out some serious acting chops and do that, especially on a dramatic film.
Anyway! I say good luck to Trish!

Though I know there are many who have starred in some films, some big budget. I’d love to see someone in a role which propels them to superstardom as a film actor/actress and the ball keeps rolling. I know The Rock might be the recent example to cite but I mean something different from that.

Erin – I refered Tomb Raider, because Lara Croft is in a way a bounty collector. She travels in order to find rare items. That’s why I made the comparison.

Bail Enforcers?The fuck?!Erm…I hope it turns out better than it sound,because Trish is way too awesome AND smart to choose a film that’s lame as hell.
P.S.I hope the fighting in the film doesn’t suck,or look fake.

I just saw the entire cast on there website Trish is the only one with a serious expression the rest look like there trying to be goofy that’s not a good sign at all.
