We gonna talk about how John Cena already surpassed The Rock as an actor?

It's one movie. The Disney shyt is a cheat code.

You gotta get the part first. Your boy had to do Fox animation joint no one watched.

So did rock.

That's my point. It's different when it's Disney. shyt would've been a smash with a noname.

I feel like Cena has had better opportunities because he's white
the Rock had to make most of his roles from scratch

Better opportunities like what...hosting a TBS Ninja Warrior style show?

 

[Big Boss]

nope

 

[Luke Cage]

John Cena finally made it, people forget both of these dude went into hollywood at around the same time.
Between them two and Batista, they are the biggest movies stars WWE has ever seen. I remember when they tried to make Hulk Hogan a movie star.

But low key, Andre the Giant was the best actor out of all of them based off princess bride alone.

false they purposely pick well-known actors for the side roles
The rock embodies Maui just like Robin Williams embodies Genie

That Rock playing Rock Black Adam trailer.

These Cener hot takes funny.

Cena is a legit great comedic actor, Dwayne is too concerned with playing the "peak man" persona he's cultivated, he's afraid to make fun of himself just like Vin Diesel.

I think this is a solid take. I've been disappointed with how safe The Rock has played most of his movie career. The thing that frustrates me is The Rock does have those comedic chops. He was fukking hilarious back in the Attitude Era, and was creative enough to come up with all his own promos and stuff.

For whatever reason I just don't like a lot of the movies he chooses to be in.

 

[Chris Cool]

You gotta give Dwayne a chance to respond first, let Black Adam come out first.

I’d be up for Rock and Cena in a modern Lethal Weapon reboot on the silver screen

I find Cena's roles more engaging and natural than the Rock's. Rock is a cornball goofy dad in real life and it shows in his performances. An awesome solid guy who's got a heart of gold but all I see in the Black Adam trailer is the rock pretending to be serious but still a goofball who tries to hard.
