World Wrestling Entertainment star Triple H has signed on to a pair of high-profile roles. He will star in Jornada del Muerte, a modern-day Western from Apocalypse Now writer John Milius, and will battle Wesley Snipes in New Line Cinema's Blade: Trinity.
Jornada del Muerte (Journey of Death) will be the first theatrical release from the recently formed WWE Films production banner. The project, which Milius said was written specifically for Triple H (whose real name is Michael Paul LeVesque) to star in, is described as a modern-day Western set in the Southwest that involves motorcycle gangs, drug trafficking and broken codes of honor.
In "Blade," Triple H will play one of the heavies who take on Snipes' vampire-hunter character in the third installment of the franchise. The film is being directed by David Goyer. It will mark his first appearance on the big screen.
