John Cena and Awkwafina are set to star in the new action comedy Jackpot, and the first images from the film are online. Prime Video released the first stills from the film, and you can check them out below.
The movie is directed by Paul Feig and stars Cena, Awkwafina, Ayden Mayeri, Donald Elise Watkins, Sam Asghari, Murray Hill and Simu Liu. Releasing on August 15th on Prime Video, it is described as follows:
In the near future, a “Grand Lottery” has been newly established in California—the catch: Kill the winner before sundown to legally claim their multi-billion dollar jackpot. When Katie Kim (Awkwafina) moves to Los Angeles, she mistakenly finds herself with the winning ticket. Desperate to survive the hordes of jackpot hunters, she reluctantly joins forces with amateur lottery protection agent Noel Cassidy (John Cena) who will do everything in his power to get her to sundown in exchange for a piece of her prize.
However, Noel must face off with his slick rival Louis Lewis (Simu Liu), who also seeks to collect Katie’s commission at all costs. Previously titled Grand Death Lotto, Jackpot is directed by Paul Feig (Bridesmaids, The Heat) and written by Rob Yescombe.
