 WWE wrestling champion John Cena makes his motion picture debut in this rugged action thriller. Cena is John Titan, a heroic Marine who returns home after being discharged- against his will- from the Iraq War. Stateside, he finds himself back in action, when his wife (Kelly Carlson) is kidnapped by a murderous gang led by the merciless Rome (Robert Patrick). With everything on the line, the Marine will stop at nothing to carry out his toughest and most important mission.
John Cena: "My character in THE MARINE, John Triton, fights for his country - and loves doing so. He has a good wife, and he's really focused on family. He's a down-to-earth, grounded guy."
Cena: "How did I get the role? That's like asking me how I became a professional wrestler. I think it is the dream of a lot of people to be both; it certainly was mine! There was really no transition from wrestling to motion pictures. It's not a move up - they're both on the same level. My goal is to keep wrestling, until I can no longer handle it physically. I just want to add movies and acting into the mix."
Cena: "In THE MARINE, I'm not as over-the-top as I am in the ring, where I'm usually the one talking trash and making fun of my opponents. In the film, I have to be soft-spoken - a walk-softly-and-carry-a-big-stick kind of guy."
