Jessica McKay, a professional wrestler, has changed directions and entered the acting world after leaving her WWE days behind. Although she left the business last year, McKay is most known to fans of professional wrestling for her work for WWE as Billie Kay, one half of the tag team The IIconics with Peyton Royce (Cassie Lee). Following a spell in Impact Wrestling, they just declared their retirement from professional wrestling. They were both released together in 2021 after six years with WWE.
McKay quickly discovered fresh creative activities to explore. Since then, The Charisma Killers director Michael Matteo Rossi has revealed on Twitter that McKay has been cast in the movie. The project, according to Rossi, will begin filming this fall, and he couldn’t be happier to have McKay join the ensemble.

McKay will portray “Swinger Girl” in The Charisma Killers, according to IMDb, but Rossi withheld any other details about her character. Vanessa Angel (Weird Science, Kingpin), Vernon Wells (Barry), Jordan James Smith (Living with Models), Chris Moss (Criminal Minds), Hoyt Richards (Intersection), Mike Dargatis (Gasoline Alley), Jason Scott Jenkins (American Horror Story), Danny Arroyo (Halfway House), and TJ Jackson are among the other actors who appear in the movie (Vacation Friends).
There isn’t much information available regarding The Charisma Killers, but you can read the official logline from the filmmakers down below.
The seven killers’ old master offers them everyone a chance to show themselves at his fortune for one night only in order to seek retribution when he learns that he has terminal cancer.
Jessica McKay May Be Appearing in Many Other Films
According to Jessica McKay’s IMDb biography, she has several further parts scheduled. She is mentioned as a cast member of the horror/drama movie Prom Night, which is portrayed from the perspectives of numerous different characters. Alongside Scarlett Strasberg, she is a cast member of the action-adventure film Maverick. Given that McKay has left the world of professional wrestling, this may simply be the beginning of a long acting career.
Prior to announcing their retirement in April, Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee were known as The Inspiration in Impact Wrestling. The tag team said in a statement that they were searching for new opportunities to pursue, with film work appearing to be the direction McKay would like to go. Below is a copy of their retirement statement.
“We would want to thank Scott D’Amore and the IMPACT family as a whole. Working with the outstanding IMPACT team and roster has been a great experience for us. These IMPACT memories will live on in our hearts forever. We are eager to begin a new chapter in our lives and investigate any potential new options.
There is no release date yet for The Charisma Killers. Aries Spears, Damien Puckler, and Jessica Morris starred in the action-thriller Chase, which was directed by Michael Matteo Rossi. That movie, which was distributed by Vertical Entertainment, earned the Hollywood Reel Film Festival’s Best Action Feature prize.
