Johnson shared the news of Cena's casting on his Instagram page and congratulated him. "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 dropping the People's Elbow on you. And you know first hand how devastating my elbow drops can be. Congrats my friend and let's go make a good one," he wrote. Johnson was earlier attached to star in the action-thriller but due to his busy schedule, he decided it was best move along as a producer.
