Jason Momoa leads Netflix revenge flick Sweet Girl

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Well, it looks like AQUAMAN and GAME OF THRONES breakout action-star Jason Momoa has just snagged the lead in Netflix's upcoming action-revenge movie SWEET GIRL. BRAVEN producer and FRONTIER executive producer Brian Andrew Mendoza will be reuniting with Moma and making his directorial debut on the film.

Momoa will play 

A devastated husband that vows to bring justice to the people responsible for his wife’s death, all while protecting the only family he has left, his daughter. 

Momoa said in a statement:

I’m excited to partner with Netflix once again. I’m putting a dream team together from Brad and Jeff to my best friend, Brian who has been my partner for over ten years. It’s a dream come true to collaborate with him and deliver his vision.

Producer Jeff Fierson added:

Jason and Brian are like family, so to re-team with them on a movie after working for three seasons of Frontier, is a dream come true. When we first read this script, we knew there was only one actor who could bring the gravitas and depth to the role of Cooper, and that’s Jason. And this is the perfect vehicle for Brian to make his directorial debut.

Brian Andrew Mendoza will take the helm of this revenge flick from a screenplay written by Gregg Hurwitz and Philip Eisner with revisions by Will Staples. Brad Peyton and Jeff Fierson will produce along with and Momoa and Mendoza, and Martin Kistler will exec produce. 

I don't know about you but I'm down for watching James Wan's Aquaman beat the ass of people in a hardcore Netflix revenge flick. But maybe that's just me. We'll let you know once we hear more about this new revenge movie but until then make sure to hit us up and let us know what you think!
