Join us at the Fifth Annual 80s Wrestling Con on Saturday, May 4th, at the Mennen Sports Arena in Morristown, NJ, featuring The Four Horsemen, Jake Roberts, and More! 80sWrestlingCon.com.

Chris Jericho has a new project in the works as he will be teaming with The Walking Dead author Jay Bonansinga on the psychological thriller “Self Storage.”

Deadline reports the movie is based on Bonansinga's 2016 novel of the same name with the lead character of John Fitzgerald, who is slated to be played by Lew Temple.

Bonansinga previously directed the short “City of Men” and Stash. He is slated to direct from the script that he wrote. It will be executive produced by Jericho’s Babyface Assassin Productions alongside Bonansinga and Jeff Siegel for Delirium Tremens and Jason Cherubini for Dawn’s Light.

Jericho is slated to star in it in a supporting role, as he has previously starred in “Country Hearts Christmas” and “Terrifier 2.”

The movie “centers on a heroin-addicted father and his son who accidentally lock themselves inside a self-storage unit. Surviving will depend on a battle with demons both real and manufactured by drug withdrawal.”

The former AEW World Heavyweight Champion is slated to wrestle Konosuke Takeshita on next week’s Dynamite.
