Cena was Rejected for MCU, Deadpool 2, Shazam Roles

[Canon]

worked out in the end for him

Stop.

Cena only has one shot at a marvel role.
Which is solo and he probably will never be considered because he played peacemaker.
Plus he does not fit the face model.
of any major marvel character as well.
Plus he is john cena.
Which makes it even more difficult to cast him just for starters.

He could be Hyperion in the MCU. Or maybe Gladiator as a limited speaking role goon for the Shi'ar Empire.

Not at all.

Cena got the role for him in dc.

Cena is a simple force at any marvel character.
To the point...
When i made the idea first.
that cena was the next hulk hogun on rwality island based tv.
if wwf was watching and trying to pick up a clue.
In that i never saw any marvel or image comics character. If there was i would have said it then as well.

Cena has over achieved and won. Especially since he actualized prophecy. When he could have easily been tha mega man tom mcghee.
or however you spell that roided freaks name back then.
That bret could only carry.

Cena being actualized is a feat. As he could have been lost in reality tv doldrums of hell. Plus never being a bunim and ellis mtv reality show guy. Cena cpuld have a horrific life. If he never ramped and seized the day.


It is not cena's fault. That prospectively. On first glance he looks like a wwe hof great champion.

He just so happened to go execute and ramp.
When real talk he could have failed.
Failed rather easily.

yeah, i know he's backdoored his way into the perfect role in DC, but i was just saying, he could have been one of those Superman archetype marvel characters. He could have easily play 2nd fiddle to Thor since Hyperion and Thor was friends at some point in the comics. Just not carry a movie as the lead.

Makes sense
He doesn’t fit the mcu
Too big and too expensive for a role at this point

Juggernaut is Irish in the comics. He'd be a good sentry or gladiator for sure.

He'd do a good Sentry but Sentry is a superman clone and he's basically being phased out these days, and none of his stories are that great. I doubt he'd be put into the MCU.

Gladiator is even less talked about than Sentry.

I said Hercules because he's a marvel mainstay character that's been in pretty much every major marvel story, even if it's a minor role.

Maybe Nova.

Nova is the douche everyone loves to hate

Here's the thing..if he fits, let's roll with that but there's alot of intriguing types that are MIA from this stuff. Tom Cruise hasn't popped up yet...lol. What if they could talk Chris Tucker into doing something? He bleeds charisma...

It feels like y'all are arguing that Cena shouldn't get a role because y'all don't like him, rather than just looking at the character's he could realistically play like the rest of us.

I don't like Cena either really, but there's more than enough roles out there for him and he'd likely do a good job.

Would I rather Tom Cruise or Chris Tucker get a role over John Cena? Absolutely, but there's future roles for him in the MCU, like it or not

He's not in anything I like or respect. So it's not my thing to want to see him get a role for no reason when he's not a blatant smooth fit.

 

[WMG the 2nd]

All that tells me is he was desperately looking for a way out...

Way out of what? Being rich? Getting his own show? He did a FF movie that did more than some marvel movies during a pandemic

 

[WMG the 2nd]

nikka said he want chris Tucker in a marvel movie before juan

 

[MenacingMonk]

Y’all want him to play Herc, but don’t bytch when he’s
