John Cena Opens Up About Being Dua Lipa’s “Emotional Support” on the Set of ‘Argylle’

Dua Lipa and John Cena developed a strong bond while working together on the film ‘Argylle’. Cena, expressing gratitude for Lipa’s comment that he is her “emotional support actor,” revealed that they connected during the shooting, especially since it was Lipa’s first time on-screen. Cena admitted feeling nervous too, and their shared vulnerability led to meaningful conversations.

As both are live performers with experiences on the road, they discussed their lives, creating a connection that Cena cherishes. The ‘Peacemaker’ actor enjoyed those moments with the British singer-songwriter, and he’s happy that she appreciated them too.

In a behind-the-scenes featurette shared by Warner Bros., Cena also shared his enthusiasm for appearing in ‘Barbie’, where Lipa played a mermaid-inspired Barbie doll, and Cena portrayed a merman, expressing that he was blown away by the film’s concept.

John Cena shared his excitement about the upcoming movie, expressing confidence that it will be enjoyed by diverse audiences, spark conversations, and be visually stunning. He believes the film’s ideas will leave viewers with a mix of opinions, making it a truly engaging experience.

When director Greta Gerwig and lead actress Margot Robbie didn’t receive Oscar nominations, Cena called their work “one hell of an achievement.” Despite the snub, Cena emphasized that awards are not the only measure of success.

He acknowledged the impact of their movie, ‘Barbie’, which garnered eight Academy Award nominations, including ‘Best Picture’ and ‘Best Adapted Screenplay’ for Gerwig’s collaboration with her husband, Noah Baumbach. Robbie also earned a nomination as one of the film’s producers in the ‘Best Picture’ category.
