The Rock And John Cena To Work Together On ‘The Janson Directive’ Film

The Rock has now confirmed that 16-time World Champion John Cena will be joining him. Together, they will work on The Rock’s new film, “The Janson Directive.”

As WWE.com write, the two Superstars will be reuniting in the thriller, “The Janson Directive.” This film is based on a novel by Jason Bourne creator Robert Ludlum.

The book has been on the radar for The Rock for some time, and it now appears that his studio Seven Bucks Productions alongside Universal Pictures will be coming together to create the film based on it.

Cena was cast as the leading man in the film, a huge role for the growing Hollywood star. The Rock took to his Instagram account to comment on Cena’s new role:

Found my star! Congrats to my good bud John Cena on landing the lead role for our movie, THE JANSON DIRECTIVE. A project that myself, @sevenbucksprod, our production partners and Universal Studios have been developing for years now. Congrats man and I’m excited to go on this journey with you. Thank you for your commitment to the role and remember, as your producer if you screw up, I’m coming to set and droppin’ the People’s Elbow on ya. And you know first hand how devastating my elbow drops can be ??? Congrats my friend and let’s go make a good one. #JansonDirective #JohnCena #SevenBucksProds #CaptivateEnt #WeedRoadPics #MythologyEnt #UNIVERSAL
