Variety reports that WWE Studios’ next action movie will be called Lockdown and will feature Dean Ambrose in a starring role. This is the second movie under the new six-pack WWE Studios and Lionsgate deal.

Production starts this month. The movie will be directed by Stephen Reynolds of Tomb Raider: Ascension.

Written by Nathan Brooks and Bobby Lee Darby of WWE’s See No Evil 2, Lockdown tells the story of “a police officer who finds himself trapped inside his own precinct and hunted after crooked cops stop at nothing to recover incriminating evidence of illegal activities against those closest to him.”

WWE Studios’ head Michael Luisi said of Lockdown:

“Lockdown will continue to energize and excite with the high level of adrenaline our fans have come to expect from our films.”

Good for Dean. I guess that means Rollins walks winning out of this rivalry since it would like kinda off silly to have Dean win and not cash in on the momentum. But good for him.

Judging by the name it sounds like a prison break style movie.

I can believe Ambrose in that type of role.

If he's anything like Roddy Piper, he may be a decent actor. Until The Rock showed up, Piper was head and shoulders above every other wrestler on the silver screen.
Actually, I prefer Piper over The Rock in terms of believ-ability.

The plot sounds fairly decent and Ambrose seems like he'd be believable in the role. I don't usually go out of my way to watch WWE produced films, but I might give this one a go.

If it's a prison break movie, then I suppose Ambrose would be good for that. The look would fit him since he looks much better with a dirty look, and of course his gimmick could match that if they aim for a loud or crazy guy. I would be interested in the movie really, glad to see one of the Shield members doing a movie, even if it is WWE studios. Hopefully he can make this movie at least watchable.
