Deadline is reporting that Paradigm’s Sports Group is launching a book-to-film publishing collaboration with WWE’s CJ Perry for her novel debut.
Perry, who is under a legends deal with WWE is working beside bestselling author and screenwriter Blake Northcott on the fiction novel “Bulletproof Angel.”
Northcott is the international bestselling author of “Arena Mode” and “The North Valley Grimoire.” She has written over 50 novels, comics, and short stories. In addition, she has also written for Heavy Metal Magazine, Weird Tales, DC Comics (“Catwoman”), and Dynamite Comics (“Barbarella”).
Deadline notes that “Bulletproof Angel” is a high-octane international spy thriller that centers on a brilliant young CIA agent and her estranged mother, a retired operative with a haunted past. They are forced to work together behind enemy lines to stop an AI-powered weapon system capable of triggering global catastrophe.
