John Cena mightve started his Hollywood career throwing punches, but it was a naked comedy role that helped him finally feel at home outside the wrestling ring.
In a new Vanity Fair video, Cena rewatched his infamous Trainwreck scene with Amy Schumer and opened up about how that movie changed everything for him. According to the WWE legend, Trainwreck wasnt just his big-screen breakthrough it was the first time he ever felt truly comfortable acting on set.
Cena revealed that the raunchy sex scene wasnt even in the original script. Instead, Judd Apatow and Amy Schumer encouraged him to improvise a challenge he wasnt sure he could handle until he did.
Even surrounded by professional comedians, Cena said he finally found confidence thanks to how supportive Schumer and Apatow were behind the scenes.
And yes Cena tackled the elephant in the room: filming that awkward sex scene while totally exposed.
In the end, Cena said hell always be thankful to Schumer and Apatow for opening that door and letting him be himself even if it meant being exposed in every sense of the word.
John Cena built his career on confidence, but Trainwreck gave him the chance to find it in a whole new arena. And it took some improv and full frontal to get there.
