John Cena Had to Take "Bold Decisions" for His New Movie, 'Ricky Stanicky'

John Cena is making bold moves and taking a fresh direction in his career. The WWE wrestler-turned-actor has decided to step away from his usual action-packed films and light-hearted comedies to explore more meaningful projects. However, his latest venture is a departure from the norm - a raunchy comedy titled 'Ricky Stanicky,' featuring Cena alongside familiar faces like Zac Efron and Jermaine Fowler.

Directed by Peter Farrelly, known for his work on films like 'Dumb and Dumber' and 'There’s Something About Mary,' 'Ricky Stanicky' presented Cena with some tough decisions. Despite the challenges, Cena embraced the role wholeheartedly, praising Farrelly for pushing him out of his comfort zone and extracting the best performances.

Reflecting on his transition from wrestling to acting, Cena acknowledges the inherent absurdity of his former profession but highlights the commitment and authenticity required to engage audiences. For Cena, it's about fully immersing oneself in the character and delivering performances that keep viewers on the edge of their seats.

In 'Ricky Stanicky,' Cena tackles embarrassing moments on screen with gusto, whether it's donning a merman costume, sporting tighty-whities, or rocking a Britney Spears outfit. He sees these moments as opportunities for growth and improvement, embodying his philosophy of striving to be better every day.

As he looks back on his career, Cena invites fans to join him on his latest adventure with 'Ricky Stanicky,' now available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
