John Cena, the WWE superstar turned Hollywood actor, recently discussed the differences between professional wrestling and film action while appearing on NPR's 'Bullseye with Jesse Thorn.' He emphasized that vulnerability is key to connecting with audiences, asserting that characters can be interesting even when they appear weak. Cena compared the live performance of wrestling, which requires physical contact and authenticity, to the choreographed nature of film, where safety allows for staged action without actual hits. He noted that while wrestling necessitates bringing all the physicality, film allows for more artistic freedom and planning. As Cena prepares for his retirement tour in 2025, he continues to enjoy his dual career in the ring and on screen, having recently starred in the action comedy 'Jackpot.' This farewell tour will mark the end of his in-ring appearances, as he transitions fully into his Hollywood endeavors.
