John Cena started his acting career alongside his WWE career. He appeared in action movies such as The Marine and 12 Rounds. These movies were mostly action-based and did not showcase his comedic range. His role as Peacemaker dramatically changed the trajectory of his acting career as it showcased his abilities as a refined actor. He portrayed the role with the required comedic timing, and dramatic range and connected with his audience on a larger scale. This movie solidified his position in Hollywood bringing him further opportunities.
