Vin Diesel has teased the possibility of former WWE Champion John Cena joining the Fast & Furious Franchise.
On Thursday, Diesel released a video on his official Instagram account where he talks about Pablo sending him “another soldier for the fight for truth.” Pablo is a name that he calls the late great Paul Walker, who unfortunately passed away in 2013 after crashing his car.
Diesel would then pan over to Cena standing next to him and doing his signature hand gesture. As a result, it sparked speculation as to what this video means and if it could be an indication of Cena starring in Fast & Furious 9. You can see the video here:
Fast & Furious 9 is currently in pre-production with the expected release date to be May 22, 2020. It should be noted that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson confirmed back in January that he would not appear in the 9th installment of the franchise as the character Hobbs.
As for the reason, it goes back to him promoting the spinoff movie “Hobbs & Shaw” alongside Jason Statham. Hobbs & Shaw is set to be released in theaters for fans to watch around the world on August 2nd.
