John Cena to bring to life video game hero 'Duke Nukem'

  • IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,April 07 2018]

John Cena is attached to a new movie based on the video game character 'Duke Nukem' who was very popular during the 90s.  The amazing thing is that they way the character has been designed physically holds a strong resemblance the wrestling superstar and that is obviously why he is the automatic choice for the role.

I think that's the direct attachment and I'm very honored to be attached to that but that is a very fragile franchise. That was one that was very timeline specific, that is 1990s to the hilt. So, once again, it reflects upon story, Cena said. The story has to come in dead-on balls, man. Like it has to come in told correct, told in a palatable sense for this generation, which you're walking on eggshells…you can't not be Duke Nukem, but you can't make the wrong move…so I'm…what a blessing to be attached to that, a name like that, and I just hope development does the franchise justice.

John Cena meanwhile is having a dream run as his just released comedy 'Blockers' is a hit with the critics as well as the audiences.
