John Cena will soon be onscreen with Eric Andre once again.
WWE’s Cena has been cast for a role in the upcoming Netflix film “Little Brother,” Deadline is reporting. The movie, which is in early development, sees Cena alongside Andre in a film produced by David Bernad and Ruben Fleischer.
A description of the film from Deadline says that it will see a “famous real estate agent whose carefully curated world is upended when his eccentric ‘little brother’ unexpectedly reappears.”
Cena and Andre have a brief, yet memorable, history. Cena had a quick cameo as part of “The Eric Andre Show,” an Adult Swim late-night talk show parody hosted by Andre which attempted to blur the line between fiction and reality.
In an intro of the show, which saw Andre use his body to destroy the live set, Cena appeared on-screen to throw him through a bookshelf.
Andre and Cena – both kings of wildly different worlds which both could be described as using “kayfabe” – will be on the same screen together once again.
“Little Brother” won’t be the only Netflix show Cena is expected to appear on. Cena is among the many names announced for WWE Monday Night Raw’s premiere on the platform early next year. It is likely that he will further be seen on the program as his professional wrestling retirement year continues.
