In addition to wrestling, Cena has cultivated a notable film career, appearing in major projects like 'The Suicide Squad,' 'Fast & Furious,' and the upcoming movie 'Argylle.' Cena's move from the ring to the screen mirrors trajectories of other wrestling stars like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. With Cena's commitment to balancing his Hollywood aspirations with occasional WWE appearances, fans can still anticipate his presence in the wrestling world for a brief while longer.
