AJ MENDEZ COMEDY 'SACRAMENTO' PREMIERES AT TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL IN NYC

The film Sacramento, which features former WWE star April Mendez aka AJ Lee among the cost, premiered over the weekend at the Tribeca Film Festival in NYC with Mendez in attendance:

The plot of the film: "Flighty and unpredictable Ricky (Michael Angarano) is kicked out of his convalescent home following the death of his father and surprises his best friend, Glenn (Michael Cera), by forcing him on a road trip across California. Unbeknownst to him, Glenn is about to start a family with his wife Rosie (Kristen Stewart) and is sick of Ricky’s inability to grow out of their past shenanigans. In the worn yellow seats of Glenn’s old college car, the two men reckon with the mistakes of their past and the questions lurking in their future."

The film has an additional screening this week on 6/12 as part of the Festival.

Mendez appeared on the second season of Heels as an actor.  As a writer, she wrote an excellent and acclaimed memoir Crazy is My Super Power and co-wrote the film Blade of the 47 Ronin, which was released via Netflix in 2022.  She is the co-founder of Scrappy Heart Productions with partner Aimee Garcia.
