After a previous announcement from Vin Diesel, it appears John Cena will join the cast of Fast & Furious 9. According to Deadline, Universal officially confirmed John Cena today. Details on the character are currently under wraps, but he is being described as a “badass”.
John Cena’s most recent big screen appearance was in 2018’s Bumblebee. Although fans will have to wait one year for Vin Diesel and John Cena to co-star in Fast & Furious 9, there is another highly-anticipated installment of the franchise coming this summer.
Before Fast & Furious 9 hits theaters, fans will be able to see the series’ first spin-off this year in Hobbs & Shaw. Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham are returning as their titular roles to reluctantly team-up against Idris Elba’s super-powered villain. Neither John Cena or Vin Diesel have been announced to appear in Hobbs & Shaw but fans will be able to see them together in Fast & Furious 9 very soon.
