John Cena wants to reprise his F9 in another Fast and Furious movie: 'I would love to see more Jakob'

Hollywood star John Cena says he is ready to reprise his role of Jakob for another Fast and Furious movie if the audience enjoys watching F9.

The 44-year-old actor made his debut in the ninth instalment of the long-running action franchise, which released in the US last week to box office success.

Cena plays Jakob, the estranged younger brother of Vin Diesel's Dominic Toretto, in the Justin Lin-directed movie.

During an interview with Insider, the actor was asked whether he would like to return for the franchise''s tenth chapter.

To this, Cena said, "I'm a fan. So, I want to say that I would love to see more Jakob. As the rookie on the squad, I'm not near high enough to make any of those decisions."

"I just really hope that the world enjoys F9. If they enjoy it, maybe I'll get another shot," he added.

Fast and Furious 9 also features Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Nathalie Emmanuel, Sung Kang, Michael Rooker, Helen Mirren, Kurt Russell, and Charlize Theron.

Since its release, the movie has grossed over $400 million at the global box office.

Udaan to AK vs AK, Vikramaditya Motwane’s decade-long genre-hopping filmography is commendable

Director Vikramaditya Motwane’s earliest memory of being on a set is from the 80s when his mother Dipa De Motwane worked as a production manager. It was an ad for Nycil that was being directed by the legendary Shukla Das. “My sister and I had gone and I remember there was a stage where some kids were doing a play and there was a paper dragon,” the 44-year-old had shared in a previous interview to me. But it was much later when he turned 17 that Motwane began to enjoy being on a set. “I used to be very bored initially. Then my mother roped in my friends and I to help on a television chat show called Teen Talk. That’s when I realised that it was the best thing ever.” Since those heady days of being a production assistant, Motwane has gone on to explore many genres as a director. His debut film Udaan (2010) was the first Indian film in seven years to be an official selection at Cannes. The coming-of-age film, starring Rajat Barmecha and Ronit Roy, is a deeply affecting story of a mother...

Vivarium movie review: Imogen Poots, Jesse Eisenberg are trapped in an endless suburban nightmare

Language: English The thriller genre has always had a cultural appreciation for suburbia. Though the suburbs were designed to make families feel safe and secure, the isolation and homogeneity have always made it a perfect setting for strange, sinister occurrences to unfold. So, filmmakers have often looked to capture the devilish underbelly hiding behind the tree-lined streets, white picket fences and cookie-cutter houses. Lorcan Finnegan’s Vivarium , which premiered at Cannes 2019 as part of the Critics' Week sidebar, turns suburbia into a Kafkaesque nightmare. Taking existential cues from Black Mirror and its spiritual predecessor The Twilight Zone , the Irish filmmaker delivers a bracingly original, thought-provoking sci-fi thriller. The film opens with a shot of a cuckoo bird pushing another bird's newborn chicks out of the nest, in an attempt to trick the host bird to raise its offspring. A young girl finds one of the dead newborn chicks lying on the ground outside h...
