WWE Studios<\/strong> and Anchor Bay Films<\/strong> announced today that they have jointly acquired distribution rights in North America, the United Kingdom and Australia\/New Zealand to Boss-Media’s Road to Paloma<\/strong>, Jason Momoa<\/strong>‘s directorial debut.<\/p>\n

In Road to Paloma, Momoa (“Game of Thrones,” Conan the Barbarian) stars as Robert Wolf, a Native American, who is being hotly pursued by the FBI for having taken the law into his own hands after a brutal injustice occurs when his mother is raped and killed on their reservation. Wolf crosses paths with Cash (Mollohan), a down and out musician, and an unlikely bond is formed as they motorcycle across the vast highways of the American West in search of redemption.
