WWE NXT and former TNA Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace is expanding her résumé beyond the ring — and into the world of cinema.
As first reported by Variety, Grace is set to make her feature film debut in the upcoming independent fantasy drama Welcome to Paradise. The genre-blending film is currently in post-production and marks a bold first step into acting for the powerhouse pro wrestler.
Written and directed by Richard Summers-Calvert, Welcome to Paradise mixes elements of psychological drama, dark comedy, and surreal fantasy. The story revolves around a mysterious carnival where survival depends on winning — promising a high-stakes, high-concept narrative.
The cast includes rising talents Georgina Bennett and Kirk Patterson in the lead roles, with veteran British actor Bill Nighy lending his voice to the project and Gavin & Stacey star Mathew Horne also appearing. Grace’s casting brings a unique edge and fan crossover appeal to the already ambitious project.
Welcome to Paradise is aiming for a late 2025 release, with a run on the international film festival circuit expected before a wider release.
This marks a significant career milestone for Grace, whose in-ring accolades and growing mainstream profile continue to make waves across both professional wrestling and entertainment industries.
