Veneno: Primera caída – El relámpago de Jack is a 2018 sports biopic about the Dominican Republic wrestler Jack Veneno. Directed by Tabaré Blanchard and starring Manny Pérez, it is the first part of a planned trilogy.

Production

The Veneno trilogy is one of the largest native Dominican Republic productions.

Some liberties were taken with the story; for example, in reality Veneno first saw El Santo at a Ciudad Trujillo cinema with his father, but in the film this was moved to a travelling circus in the town of San José de Ocoa where he spent his earliest years.
