John Cena is a man of many talents. He is a wrestler, actor, and someone who can take jokes in stride. The Suicide Squad (2021) film, directed by James Gunn, was a benchmark for his Hollywood career because it allowed him to play the DC character Peacemaker. He was joined by high-profile actors like Pete Davidson, Idris Elba, Joel Kinnaman, Margot Robbie, Michael Rooker, and more.
However, just like the movie and its characters, the ordinarily composed cast couldn’t help but make jokes about Cena’s p**is during a promotional event for the film. Somehow amongst all the ruckus, it was Cena who kept the proceedings professional.
John Cena Gets Teased By The Suicide Squad Cast
In The Suicide Squad, there’s a scene where John Cena’s Peacemaker wakes up in a camp in nothing but his underwear. So during the virtual press conference, his costars like Idris Elba, whose character Bloodsport shares a rivalry with Peacemaker, couldn’t help but tease Cena about that. The actor jokingly said, “We don’t want to talk about John’s tighty whitey scene.”
But Elba wasn’t the only one who commented on the scene. Pete Davidson said what was on everyone’s minds:
“Yo, bro, your d*ck is huge. I saw a screening of the movie. You have a huge piece, dude… I saw it in a screening with like 20 people and the first thing everybody said after the movie, besides it was great, was ‘Yo, Cena’s d*ck is crazy.’ All my uncles that love wrestling, they were like, ‘Yo, I didn’t know Cena was packing like that, bro.’”
Michael Rooker then chimed in to express, “That wasn’t even a p**is. It was a log.” Cena took all the comments in stride and said that he’s happy that of all the things to talk about, they are talking about his d*ck. Cena expressed:
“There are so many talented characters, actors and professionals. We just spent a good solid half a minute or more talking about my d*ck. I’m very happy about that.”
Joel Kinnaman said at the end “John’s bulge really brought us all together.” The Suicide Squad was released during the pandemic and grossed only $169 million against a $185 million budget. However, it reportedly did well on streaming. As of now, no sequel to The Suicide Squad has been announced.
John Cena On Peacemaker Season 2
Peacemaker season 1 was a huge success for HBO Max and it was renewed for a second season just a day before the finale aired. In a 2022 interview with Yahoo, John Cena talked about what fans can expect in the next season. He said:
“Every one of them wants to speculate about what the hell is gonna happen in Season 2. And that makes great conversation because there’s excitement over the next season. But holy s**t, I’m not responsible for any of those choices. I don’t write the thing. You gotta talk to the madman named James Gunn for that.”
It has been more than a year since Peacemaker season 1 premiered, but there hasn’t been an update on season 2. However, James Gunn has assured fans that the sequel season will happen. It seems like the delay is because Gunn has become the new co-CEO of DC Studios and is busy charting the course of the new DCU under him. As such, it remains to be seen when the next season premieres.
Peacemaker season 1 is streaming on HBO Max.
