Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) September 25, 2011 - In a search to find the next Angelina Jolie, Milla Jovovich, or Maggie Q, "America's Superwoman: The Next Action Diva," the reality TV brainchild of Action Diva Mimi Lesseos, begins filming next week. The action packed competition show will feature eight stunning, strong beauties competing to prove they have the stamina, talent and sex appeal to be named "America's Superwoman: The Next Action Diva". Over the course of 6 weeks, celebrity judges UFC's Big John McCarthy, veteran actress Karen Black and legendary wrestling and martial arts teacher famous for Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris - Gene Lebell will score contestants competing in a series of superwoman challenges involving stunts, action sequences, Hollywood weapons, fight scenes, and glamorous red carpet events. The action actress to be named "America's Superwoman: The Next Action Diva" will win a cash prize and a contract with Double Duty Films to co-star with Lesseos in their next feature film.

"This show will keep you on the edge of your seat with explosions, high falls, and all out action! Nothing's more thrilling than kicking butt while remaining beautiful." says Mimi Lesseos.

The never-before-seen TV concept is right on target with America's love of all things action. Extra TV recently said, "Hollywood's heart-pumping action heroes are not always men… some of the most memorable, justice-enforcing characters have been women. These sexy leading ladies prove they can kick some butt, fall in love, save the world and still look good."

Produced by Double Duty Films, "America's Superwoman: The Next Action Diva" was written and created by Mimi Lesseos, a walking, talking action hero known for training and wrestling Jim Carey in Man on the Moon, delivering a knockout performance in Million Dollar Baby, wielding weapons and swords in The Scorpion King and fighting in Gangs of New York. Worldwide, she's known by her fighting name "Magnificent Mimi." Lesseos will guide the contestants as the host of the show, sharing her action star, stuntwoman, martial arts know-how. Lesseos has her own production company Stepping Out Films - where she has written, produced, starred, and directed six of her own feature films distributed world-wide. These include Pushed to the Limit, Beyond Fear, Streets of Rage, and her latest film co-starring Tom Sizemore as her love interest, Double Duty.

The gripping series is for every little girl who wanted to be Wonder Woman, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, or run around with Charlie's Angels. It will inspire every fan of Linda Hamilton in The Terminator, Angelina Jolie in Lara Croft Tomb Raider, or Uma Thurman in the Kill Bill series. "I have always wanted an opportunity to mentor these young women because it means so much to me," states Lesseos.

Rotten Tomatoes recent list of "Top Ten Bad Ass Babes" said, "With all of the pulse pounding action and killer characters Hollywood has brought us over the years, some of the most memorable have been channeled through women who have not only enforced their own brand of justice with the best of them, but have looked good doing it."
