NCAA wrestling champion. UFC middleweight contender. Action movie star?
That’s the career progression that Mark Munoz hopes to follow ahead of the release of the film Lumpia with a Vengeance, in which he is featured in the leading role. Munoz, 42, has been on a movie sets before (including the Kevin James MMA comedy Here Comes the Boom), but this is brand new territory for him as this is the first production he’s been involved with that revolves around him and his character.
A reboot of the film Lumpia, described in a press release as “a 2003 homemade movie that became a cult hit in the Filipino American community,” Lumpia with a Vengeance is directed by Patricio Ginelsa and also stars veteran actor Danny Trejo.
