John Cena Gets Serious in Legendary

Seven-time WWE Champion John Cena recently sat down with UGO to discuss his new movie Legendary (opening Sept. 10), a dramatic departure from his action film roles in 12 Rounds and The Marine. Cena stars as Mike Chetley, a tortured ex-high school state amateur wrestling champ that reconnects with his younger brother (played by Devon Graye) through the sport.

Cena was candid about his legacy as a professional wrestler, taboo subjects in the WWE locker room, his take on MMA and where he sees himself going after he retires from the ring.
