Michael Jai White to Headline His Own Action Movie Franchise!

There just isn’t enough Michael Jai White (Black Dynamite, Undisputed II) in the action movie industry, but Moonstone Entertainment is trying to rectify that by giving White his own action movie franchise, Codename: Falcon. Indiwire reports that White signed on to star in the new franchise that will come out in 2013 and follow former marine, John “Falcon” Chapman. Favela, the first film, will see Chapman traveling to Brazil hunting for his sister’s killers but discovering much more than he bargained for including, but not limited to, police corruption ruled by the Japanese mafia. Favela will be directed by Isaac Florentine and is in pre-production right now.

I would love to see White back on screen kicking some ass since he does it so well! He holds eight black belts in various forms of martial arts, so if any one is capable of being a big-time action star, MJW fits the bill.

This is the Action Flick Chick, and you’ve just been kicked in the ass!
