Why is Hollwood reluctant to make John Cena a Movie star à la Dwayne Johnson?

He is extremely likeable and a pretty decent actor, and also has a large fan base who would pay to see him in films.

Make it make sense!

There is one simply answer.

reluctant? bro got his own fucking show lol

Peacemaker is the best show currently airing

Randy Orten is prettier

he's 48 you get better ROI if you push younger guys

If I was John Cena's she and had John Cena's kind of career/money, I'd realistically just want to retire (from everything) and settle down. Live "happily ever after".
>>
Cena is like a living toy wrestler action figure, his range as actor is very limited, like hulk hogan.
>>
>>216471455
I used to think that but he actually showed a lot of range in season 2 of pacemaker.
>>
>>216471271
he was a B-movie star for a few years in the late 00's and early 10's, wasn't he?
>>
>>216471455
Hulk hogan is just hulk hogan in everything
Cena has range.
Johnson has range, but THE ROCK is an industry in and of itself so he's just been playing that character.
>>
>>216471469
Not really, a "pg" pacemaker is the cena core natural character, he's action comedy.
He tries often to be a stoic action hero and sucks/is very mid at that.

>>216471518
Unlike hogan, cena tried to be more than cena and failed, they are the same but cena can do comedy better.

Hollywood isn't going to cast someone in a film when they're going on podcasts and shit & saying Vince McMahon is a hero, a great man, and he deserves to have all those big black dildos he inserted into his employees. Simply as that, kill that connection & he'll get work.

They'll never do better than Roddy, so why even try?
>>
>>216471271
he seems kinda fake but i believe him. what do you call that? the rock on the other hand is completely fake and gay and i hate him
>>
>>216471362
Plus, at his age, I'm sure he's already been thinking about retiring from everything soon anyway. He doesn't have anything left to prove to anybody.
>>
>>216471684
I love how John Carpenter constantly has to pubic say "this movie wasn't about the Jews!!!"
>>
>>216471271
He's white, and not jewish.
>>
He makes The Rock look like Daniel Day Lewis
>>
>>216471271
>reluctant
Dude, they are shoving him down our throats
>>
>>216471271
Cena has a very large and very noticeable bald spot.
>>
>>216471333
Maybe if you are 12
>>
>>216471271
Is he not a movie star? He's been in plenty of movies.
>>
In terms of acting ability:
Bautista > Cena > Rock > Hogan
>>
>>216471734
I'm sure that can be fixed with a touch of Hollywood magic.
>>
>>216471734
So did Hugh Laurie for most of House and they fixed it with awful CGI

>>216471712
And now its all of a sudden about the jews cause of the Israel/Palestine conflict

>>216471756
that's also how they rank in gayness

>has gigachad genetics
>doesn't reproduce
Why John, why?
>>
>>216471797
if you have a sufficiently interesting life you can stomach the emptiness that comes with not having a family. if he hadn't become a globe trotting celebrity and had washed out of the wwe he'd probably have kids in college .
>>
>>216471797
Randy Orton actually called him out on this earlier this year. Humorously and unironically enough, Cena's response was "I don't have any kids because I've spent the past 25 years raising YOURS." ("Yours" as in ours - the fans, collectively)
>>
>>216471921
Imagine your legacy is being a surrogate father to a bunch of wwe watching virgins lol
>>
>not married
>no kids
>still hasn't found his "purpose in life" despite being one of the most popular wrestlers of all time
Dude is fucking wacko
>>
>>216471797
>>216472086
John Cena is actually gay. He talked about on the Howard Stern show about fucking fat chicks. This is a form of hypersexuality that hints at homosexuality. That's why he doesn't have a wife or kids. If you watch that one WWE Diva show that was on he was dating one of the divas and he got pissed at her because she cooked dinner for him lol Guy is a total drama queen in the closet

He’s one of the few Rogan guests who didn’t feel cringeworthy to watch and surprisingly the hosts were collected for the most part.
>>
>>216472267
Definitely a 100% real thing that happened that wasn't at all scripted in any way. In fact they both completely forgot the cameras were there so this was a totally natural interaction between them in every way.

he is married though
>>
>>216472382
Sometimes a guy looks gay/trans from facial features alone. Cena does kinda have that let's be honest. He looks like a Lesbian. His wife is pretty though.
>>
>>216472267
Bad example to use. I'd react the same way.
Modern bitches can't cook and I don't trust their slop.
Plus I care about my house and how I have it taken care of, which this bimbo definitely isn't doing. Maybe he's just OCD.
>>
John Cena desperately wants his ass fucked, it isn't as erotic as breaking a man that is more reluctant to getting his ass fucked. Or hopeful about not getting his ass fucked this time, and then fucking him in the ass so hard he cries. Cena won't fight back, he expects it. That's not interesting.
>>
he cant act unlike dwayne

>>216471271

He's in fucking everything right now. It's the opposite.

>>216471271
they're probably afraid to take a chance because most of his projects have been commercial failures
he was in the Bumblebee Movie that bombed
Fast and Furious 9 which bombed
Kevin Hart garbage
and a bunch of shitty commercials that don't know what to do with him besides the "you cant see him because he's John Cena" joke
The Rock gets more opportunities because he's a sure thing and will usually draw in at least some people while Cena just kind of exists
his most successful character to date is just Peacebringer
>>
>>216472707
Once upon a time The Rock was a busted flush in Hollywood. Then he pulled himself out the gutter and embraced his identity as The Rock and became one of the biggest actors in the world.
>>
How can he be a draw in Hollywood when he's never been a historical draw in Wrestling beyond the "brand's top guy of his time period"? Hell, his highest instance of drawing in a match is as the B-side to the first Rock/Cena match.
>>
>>216472562
what in the pornbrain is this
>>
John Cena was born a woman and if you ever had an inkling of suspicion it is because your intuition is always right I repeat JOHN CENA IS A TRANNY, JOHN CENA WAS BORN A FEMALE. This is Big Hoss Shitta Mane, over and out.
>>
>>216471734
He got a hair transplant.
>>
>>216471797
>>216471921
>>216472183
He doesn't have kids because his dick hasn't worked in 30 years. He's juiced to the gills. Pretty much every bodybuilder is childless.

>>216471271
Rock the Dwayne Johnson is an asshole and can't act for toffee, but he had a few things going for him. He had energy, charisma, and a recognisable look. Ethnicity helps too.
Cena doesn't have any of that. He could never cut a promo like Rock, sell like Rock, wrestle like Rock. He was never over with the fans, he was only loved by kids because that's the character he was pushed to play, Big Match John, SuperCena.
His roles are goofy kids stuff, even when it's for adults. He doesn't have a proper acting bone in his body. The only advantage Cena has over Dwayne is that (as far as we can tell) he's not a complete asshole, but in Hollywood I'm pretty sure that's only going to make it harder for him.
>>
>>216474528
>he's not a complete asshole
Someone doesn't know about the Alex Riley incident, or him burying the Shield and ruining Wade Barrett's career.
>>
>>216474322
His tendency to insert his own life experiences into interviews really ruins a lot of his podcasts man.
>>
John Cena is a quiet MAGA supporter. His twitter account follows MULTIPLE MAGA journalists and MAGA fan accounts.
Hollywood won't make him a star because they're aware of the person he's trying to keep hidden.
>>
>>216471271
But he already IS a movie star, retard. Not everyone needs to be, or even can be making 75 million per movie. But he's still making fucking plenty. I never hear him complaining, and why would he?
>>
>>216471333
Also it's over, not currently airing and never will be again
>>
>>216474736
Oh I do, I just don't think that was necessarily his call. Besides that place runs on fucking ego, he'd get eaten alive if he was purer than pure.
Besides, he seems to not be a complete asshole, doesn't mean he's not. Otherwise Hollywood would have completely chewed him up and spat him out already.
>>
>>216471482
>>216471645
He doesn't work as a serious "I'm a tough guy cop" role, he works best in comedy

I loved him in Pluribus. Great casting. I laughed my ass off.
>>
>>216471271
It could be monkey paw, Cena getting even more exposure like the Rock could have affected him and he ends up just like The Rock. There was a time where The Rock is likeable.
>>
>>216474907
especially now that his face looks like a block of poorly hewed stone. he got good at deadpan too. in the marine days he just sucked. desu you'd think he'd be a bit better at acting now with all the time he's spent performing in front of people
>>
>>216474907
If you're a limited retard like yourself sure. But a good director can make him work as anything they want him too

I 100% think he is gay, there is no way a straight man does fake wrestling in the mid to late 2000s and then continues being a queer baby face jacked roided freak like Batista did for like the 2010s until current year.

Randy isn't gay at all. he is the epitome of sex, he has sex with women, specifically his hot latina wife, and has banged half the roster.

John is GAY lol.

It's so obvious,

>pussy father from Massachusetts
>mommy/daddy
>likes rap hip hop
>wears gay clothes
>speaks eloquently
>enjoys playing a fake wrestling character

He's getting in on years. Also, the rock is box office poison, has been for over 10 years.
>>
>>216471271
I think it's because of his ears. They looks so cartoonish and can't be taken seriously. Also the reason why Peacemaker works for him since the helmet covers his ears

My 2 pesos

Look at this idiot stuck in "muh attitude era"

Why get married twice then?
>>
>>216475690
>get married twice
Pure theatrics, plenty of gay men have married, financial reasons, housing, benefits, etc. To keep up with the looks and presentation. He's a business man, not a straight man.

he was in the latest episode of pluribus

>>216476751
How the fuck wasn't the second season woke? You literally had it start with a gay orgy with BBC propaganda.
