WWE Superstar John Cena confirmed earlier today that his new film ‘Ferdinand’ has been nominated for a Golden Globe in the ‘Best Animated Film’ category.
Honored and grateful for #GoldenGlobes nomination of @FerdinandMovie…The story of a BIG Bull with a BIG message of being yourself and being PROUD of who you are.

The Rock’s animated Disney movie Moana was nominated last year (it lost out to Zootopia).
Cena’s ‘Ferdinand’ will be opening this weekend against the new Star Wars film ‘The Last Jedi.’ Ferdinand is about is a young bull (voiced by John Cena) who escapes from a training camp in rural Spain after his father never returns from a showdown with a matador. Adopted by a girl who lives on a farm, Ferdinand’s peaceful existence comes crashing down when the authorities return him to his former captors. With help from a wisecracking goat and three hedgehogs, the giant but gentle bovine must find a way to break free before he squares off against El Primero, the famous bullfighter who never loses.
