In a recent appearance on ‘The Late Show’ with Stephen Colbert, 46-year-old actor and former WWE star John Cena expressed his eagerness to collaborate once again with 28-year-old Albanian singer and songwriter Dua Lipa. The duo previously shared the screen in the 2023 summer blockbuster ‘Barbie’ and the upcoming action thriller ‘Argylle’ (2024).
Cena revealed his desire to work on a buddy cop movie with Lipa, stating, “Man, I would love to do like a buddy cop movie with her.” The revelation came during a conversation with Colbert, who surprised Cena with a mock poster of a fictitious film titled ‘Beautee and the Braun,’ teasing their potential future collaboration.
During the show, Colbert playfully described the imaginary movie’s plot, where Cena is the beauty and Lipa is the Braun. Cena, known for his humor, quipped about the audience not catching the idea, prompting Colbert to joke, “They can’t see these baby blues like I can.”
The article highlighted that Cena and Lipa had previously worked together in ‘Barbie’ and ‘Argylle,’ where Cena plays the best friend of the lead character, portrayed by Henry Cavill, while Lipa plays the nemesis.
In an interesting tidbit, Cena shared with Colbert that they shot ‘Argylle’ before ‘Barbie’ and confessed to feeling nervous on set due to the attractiveness of Cavill and Lipa. However, Lipa’s admission of having performance jitters helped put Cena at ease.
Cena concluded the segment with a humorous promise to return to promote the envisioned project, ‘Beautee and the Braun,’ leaving fans excited about the potential collaboration between the wrestling legend and the music sensation.
