Roman Reigns is stepping back into Hollywood—but this time, it’s not his movie. The WWE megastar has a role in The Pickup, a new heist comedy coming to Amazon Prime Video on Wednesday, August 6.

Amazon MGM dropped the first official poster for the film on May 29, revealing a cast packed with heavyweights like Eddie Murphy, Keke Palmer, and Pete Davidson. Reigns, while not headlining the flick, is listed among the ensemble and expected to bring his signature presence to the screen.

The role marks another acting appearance for Reigns, who previously showed up in Hobbs & Shaw. Director Tim Story confirmed Reigns’ involvement in The Pickup earlier this year, shutting down earlier rumors that tied the wrestler to a different comedy, Good Fortune.

The Pickup hasn’t released a trailer yet, but with the film set to drop in just weeks, fans can expect a preview sooner rather than later.
