Isabela Merced Says She Wants 'Sweet Girl' Sequel, Hopes For 'More Action'
Isabela Merced, who played Jason Momoa's daughter in the newly dropped Netflix revenge thriller "Sweet Girl," wants to get more action scenes in the movie's sequel, if it ever happens.
The 20-year-old actress revealed she's interested in working on the flick's sequel and praised 87eleven, the stunt team that worked on its first installment.
"[I'm playing] empowered characters only. It was so much fun because they got to do a lot of the action scenes and I've always loved action movies," Merced told Coming Soon Sunday. "This stunt team in particular, they're called 87eleven and they worked on some of my favorite action movies of all times."
The actress then explained that with the help of the stunt team, she felt like Theron in "Atomic Blonde" during the stunts. Theron worked with the same stunt team on that particular flick.
"So I really felt like, 'Oh my God, I'm Charlize. Charlize Theron in Atomic Blonde.' Like this is actually happening. It was amazing. I can't wait," she expressed her excitement.
"Like maybe there's going to be a sequel, hopefully, there's time for more action," Merced added. "But like I really hope it's soon and with the same stunt team, because they were just absolutely amazing and made everything so much fun. I haven't had so much fun doing my own stunts ever."
The actress lent her voice to the animated movie "Spirit Riding Free," which was released on May 20. Voices of actors like Jake Gyllenhaal, Eiza González, Mckenna Grace and Lucian Perez were also featured in the film.
Merced will be next seen in the movie "Father of the Bride," which is penned by Matt Lopez and directed by Gary Alazraki. The movie also stars Andy García, Gloria Estefan, Adria Arjona and Diego Boneta.
She will also appear in "Rosaline," which is based on Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet." The movie is from the point of view of Romeo's jilted ex, Rosaline, who claimed to be Romeo's first love before he even fell for Juliet.
As for Momoa, he is currently filming "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom," which is slated for release on Dec. 16, 2022.
