While still recovering from the serious neck injury that has kept him out of action for more than a year, former WWE Champion Big E continues to remain active with a role in a new movie.

Announced on Monday, Big E (Ettore Ewen) is part of the cast of F Plus (F+), a family comedy that stars former UFC two-division champion and The Expendables action star Randy Couture.

Jonathan Davenport, a wrestling gear designer and friend of Big E's, wrote the screenplay. Big E will play Cliff Barker, but the specifics on the role are unknown as of now. The movie also stars comedian Tommy Davidson (In Living Color) and Jennifer Esposito (Crush, Blue Bloods, NCIS, The Affair).

WWE Studios is not affiliated with the project.



According to Deadline, the movie "follows a group of young teenagers who plan the perfect heist to break into their middle school to alter their failing test grades."

Production on the movie recently wrapped up thanks to a SAG-AFTRA waiver granted to some independent film productions during the current actors/writers strike. The film's worldwide rights have already been acquired by Premiere Entertainment which was also part of today's announcement.

The release date is unknown because those rights have not been sold. According to Deadline, Premiere "will introduce the film to domestic and international buyers during the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in September."

While he has been out of a neck brace for some time, Big E. said during a SummerSlam press conference that "has no answers" when it comes to a potential in-ring return and that he's got differing opinions on whether he should return to wrestling. He said there is no timeline for a decision and that he physically feels good.
