It remains to be seen when Roman Reigns will be in the ring again, but the Tribal Chief is keeping busy with a new major filming project.

The former Undisputed WWE Universal Champion hasn't been seen on WWE programming since his loss to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40: Sunday. The loss marked the end of Reigns' historic 1,316-day title reign and marked the dawning of a 'new era' in WWE which has been referenced several times since WrestleMania.

It's unclear when Reigns will appear on WWE TV again, but he is working on some kind of project with Lauren 'Keke' Palmer. Taking to Instagram, Palmer, an actress and singer who worked on several acclaimed projects including Jordan Peele's Nope, shared an image of Reigns as part of an upcoming production.


Roman Reigns has dabbled into the world of acting before so this new project isn't entirely foreign territory for the former World Champion. In addition to several WWE Studios projects, Reigns appeared alongside his cousin The Rock in 2019's Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw. He has also made multiple appearances on TV in animated roles.

When Roman Reigns eventually returns to WWE, he'll find a promotion that's much different from the one he's left behind. With Reigns gone, Solo Sikoa has taken it upon himself to lead the Bloodline and was dubbed the Tribal Chief by the recently debuted Tama Tonga.

Some fans believe that a feud within The Bloodline is coming that'll see Reigns lead a team against Sikoa's faction. It's also been suggested that Reigns will be a face upon returning (though not like he was before.) Cody Rhodes and others have given Reigns his proverbial flowers since WrestleMania with a 'Thank You Roman' chant breaking out during the post-WrestleMania 40 episode of Raw.
