Deville expands her career with a major casting move
Summary
– Sonya Deville joins the cast of the comedy horror film Zombois
– The project is described as a gay zombies movie with early buzz behind it
– Deville continues her post-WWE career while keeping future in-ring possibilities open
Sonya Deville is stepping further into the entertainment world as she joins the cast of the upcoming comedy horror film Zombois. Deadline reported the casting. Deville celebrated the news on Instagram with a short message expressing her excitement.
Zombois is being promoted as a gay zombie comedy. The casting aligns naturally with Deville’s history as the first openly gay woman to compete in WWE. The project marks one of her most notable acting opportunities to date.
Deville’s acting background includes hosting UFC AfterBuzz and appearing on season nine of Total Divas. Her WWE career featured a run as WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion alongside Chelsea Green. She officially departed the company in early 2025 after her contract was not renewed.
Although Deville shared in July that she considered herself retired from wrestling, she did not close the door on a possible return. Zomboi adds a new chapter to her post-WWE journey and signals her growing presence in film.
