John Cena is finally turning heel…but only for a film. Deadline reports
that Cena is set to play a villainous role in
The Nest, which will also star Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Jason Moore (Pitch
Perfect) is directing the film from a script by Paula Pell.
The Nest stars Fey and Poehler as two estranged sisters who decide to throw a
last party at their house which their parents are about to sell. While Cena’s
character details have not officially been announced, the site says that it will
in fact be a villainous turn and makes note that this would be his first time
playing a bad guy, either in the ring or on the big screen, in over twelve
years.
The film will release on December 18th, 2015 which means that Cena will be
facing off with Star Wars: Episode VII.
