In the upcoming Judd Apatow movie “TRAINWRECK” John Cena has a starring role. The film had its first industry screening last night, and the 15-time world champion is actually getting rave reviews.
“In Trainwreck, Cena plays Steven, described as a dim-witted health and Cross-fit obsessed gym rat. Over the course of the film, the script and Cena’s performance plays up the fact that he actually be a closeted homoesexual, which got a great reaction out of the audience last night and with one scene in particular, ended up with Cena getting the loudest laughs of the screening.”
The reason for theses screenings is so the creators can gauge responses and make final changes prior to the public launch. Cena’s role includes a sex scene that shows his “bare” ass. It’s possible Cena’s role could be stripped down but at this time his character plays a large part in the film and his performance is being compared to fellow WWE Superstar Bautista’s stand-out role in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy.
Those with knowledge of the film industry expect that Cena will get a lot more mainstream attention from film companies once “Trainwreck” is released next July.
