Newcomer Shaina West is the reel deal when it comes to action both on and offscreen with a life story that is just as inviting as the new movie she is headlining. West is set to take ’em down in the forthcoming actioner Jade which hails from stuntman turned filmmaker James Bamford who is best known for work on such films as Blade: Trinity and Watchmen as well as helming episodes of The CW’s DC shows Arrow and Superman & Lois. West is in good company for her first big action gig with action icon Mark Dacascos and Mickey Rourke watching her six in supporting roles. Check out the new and pulsating footage in the newly launched trailer below!
Official Synopsis: Jade follows a woman who comes between a powerful businessman and a gang leader in their search for a hard drive that could damage the operations of Interpol. The woman is required to use her unique set of skills to retrieve the drive.
West is a true testament to survival and sheer determination as she was involved in a massive motorcycle crash when she was 20. Not to be sidelined, West took her love for action, Japanese culture and ANIME and transformed herself into one bad ass martial artist which propelled her into stunt work in the film industry working on such high-profile flicks like Marvel’s Black Widow and The Woman King. West is front and center now with Jade and judging from the new trailer, she has settled right into becoming the next big female action star. Having the likes of Dacascos and Rourke backing you up for your first foray into leading action films definitely bodes well but West looks like she’s all business especially where it counts…the movie’s high-octane action sequences. She is certainly on my radar now.
Bamford is the latest stunt maestro to transition to directing and this film looks like it’ll benefit from his expertise when it comes to the action sequences. History has proven that stunt professionals are the best ones to direct action so keep the trend going.
With the level of talent involved and another stunt maestro at the helm, I’m excited for this one so keep it locked and loaded right here for more as we are your ultimate destination for your action fix!!!
Jade is set to launch on Digital Platforms this May!
