Actor Sam Asghari recently shared his experience working with wrestler-turned-actor John Cena on their action film Jackpot!. Asghari revealed that he was pleasantly surprised by Cena's intellect and multilingual abilities, as well as their shared interest in cars, watches, and Persian food due to Asghari's Iranian background and Cena's marriage to an Iranian woman.
Asghari expressed admiration for Cena's transition from WWE to acting and was particularly impressed by their collaboration on a fight scene in the film. Despite both having athletic backgrounds, Asghari humorously mentioned not wanting to embarrass Cena in the gym due to his own strength.
