It’s in the trailer that Cena reveals that he will be playing a “douchey Captain America.” Funny, considering Cena has long been called nicknames like “SuperCena” by fans around the world. All these years later, he is in a superhero movie after all.
This is another gigantic feather in the acting cap for John Cena, who can add being a part of the DC Entertainment Universe (DCEU) to his already impressive list that includes being in the next Fast and Furious film as the villain and brother of Vin Diesel’s character. His star is only growing in Hollywood.
Sadly for WWE fans, that means that his returns will only become lesser and lesser moving forward. Cena has made that abundantly clear in the past but has also made known that WWE is forever his home. He has not officially retired from in-ring competition, but it’s hard to expect his return anytime soon.
“The Suicide Squad” will be released to theaters in 2021.
