Alongside John Cena and Bray Wyatt, two more WWE Superstars will feature in the movie too who are The Miz and Sheamus. Cena will play a cameo in the movie at a time when he already grabbed a big role in the Fast and Furious 9th installment. The rest of the superstars will also have small roles in the film. There are no details available on the particular roles played by them.
WWE is yet to officially launch the film featuring their former franchise player and multi-time world champions. Once they do so, we will get to know more details on the next WWE Studios project that have produced more than 30 films over the years.
Back in 2002, WWE Studious started its journey under the name of WWE Films. In 2005, they declared to work on three projects at a time. The Condemned starring WWE legend Stone Cold Steve Austin was up first before they produced one of the popular WWE original franchise. John Cena arrived with The Marine movie in 2006 which The Miz later carried forward.
Also, Goodnight starring Kane was the third movie that released under the name of See No Evil. In 2008, the production house changed names to WWE Studios. Earlier this year, reports were out claiming that the company has entered into a partnership with Netflix, to produce family-friendly flicks. We are likely to get the first one of them, sooner.
