Deadline.com is reporting that the upcoming movie about Paige’s family which is being produced by Dwayne Johnson and WWE Studios was scooped up by MGM, in a deal worth as high as $17.5 million for worldwide distribution.

Florence Pugh will star as Paige and Jack Lowden will play her brother Zak. Lena Heady will play the role of Julia, Paige’s mother while Nick Frost will play the role of Ricky, Paige’s father. The Rock will also have a role in the movie.

Ricky and Julia want a better life for their children, and when brother and sister get the chance to audition for the WWE, it seems the family dream is coming true and all their troubles will be solved. However, Saraya and Zak are about to learn that becoming a WWE superstar demands more than they ever imagined possible as athletes and siblings.
