Former San Francisco 49ers All-Pro tight end Vernon Davis has added another project to his growing multimedia arsenal. This time, he is taking on the role of a serial killer in the new film ‘The Ritual Killer’. The film will see Davis starring alongside Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman. The film, which was released on March 10, is a small-scale production directed by Benjamin Brewer and co-stars Cole Hauser. 

The plot follows a detective on the brink of retirement who teams up with a professor of African Studies. They track down a serial killer who is practicing the ancient black magic ritual of Muti. With Freeman and Davis on board, the film is generating a lot of buzz. Davis plays the central antagonist, a role that is a departure from his previous work in television. However, what has Davis been up to after leaving the NFL?

What has Vernon Davis been up to since leaving the league?

Davis retired from the NFL in 2020 after a successful 14-year career. His illustrious career saw him play for the San Francisco 49ers, the Denver Broncos and the Washington Commanders. Since then, he has been exploring his passion for acting and entertainment, taking on a variety of different roles in film and television. 

In September 2020, Davis was announced as one of the celebrities competing in the 29th season of ‘Dancing with the Stars’. While he didn’t win the competition, his performance on the show earned him rave reviews from audiences and judges alike. He also served as a judge for the first season of the Fox series Domino Masters in March and April of 2022.

Vernon Davis’ thematic and cinematic U-Turn 

Freeman, an Academy Award winner and the recipient of multiple other awards throughout his career, is a legend in the industry. Davis, meanwhile, is a relative newcomer to acting but has already proven himself to be a talented performer. The duo’s pairing works perfectly to serve up a thrilling springtime blockbuster. 

The Ritual Killer marks a departure from the lighter fare Davis has tackled in the past. As the film’s central antagonist, Davis delivers a chilling and convincing performance that has left audiences impressed. The film has received mixed reviews from critics, but fans of Davis are thrilled to see him take on such a different role.

Davis’s foray into the entertainment world has been a success so far. The Ritual Killer is yet another step forward for the former football star. While it remains to be seen what projects he’ll take on next, it’s clear that Davis has a talent for acting and a passion for entertaining audiences.
