MMA’er Gina Carano To Star In A Movie…

After getting her ass whooped by Cyborg Santos last month, Gina has decided to branch out a little bit. We just got word that she signed on to star in a new movie called “Knockout”…a spy thriller that is supposedly a mix between “La Femme Nikita” and “Kill Bill”. In it Carano will play “a girl from the wrong side of the tracks who is given a second chance to use her skills (fighting) for constructive purposes“.
Should be a pretty good movie, especially since they’ve got Steven Soderbergh to direct. You should know him… he’s the same guy that directed films like: Crash, Erin Brockovich, Ocean’s 11-13, and that Che Guevara movie with Benicio Del Toro.
Now production on this one doesn’t start until late January so that means we shouldn’t be seeing anything in theaters until 2011. Those of you out there who are extra thirsty for Gina will be able to catch her in the straight to DVD movie “Blood and Bone” starring Michael Jai White, due out on September 15th. via Variety
