Jacob Scipio is driving full speed ahead into his rom-com era. The Pieces of Her actor stars alongside Riverdale‘s Madelaine Petsch in Prime Video’s new movie Maintenance Required, which premiered on October 8. Scipio plays Beau, who forms a connection with mechanic Charlie (Petsch) while communicating in an online forum, only to find out they’re business rivals.
“I was excited to finally act without a gun in my hand,” Scipio quipped to Swooon, who’s starred in action movies like Bad Boys for Life and Expend4bles. “I didn’t know if it was possible. It was like a safety blanket at times. But no, I switched the gun for a wrench in this one. It was a whole lot of fun getting to just play a regular dude.”
