Cena says while talking to the iHollywoodTV, “I was blown away with the concept. I think it’s going to be a movie that all audiences enjoy.” The actor continued, “I think it’s going to be a movie that evokes conversation. And I think it’s going to be beautifully visually appealing.”

The former WWE star also explained that he thinks Barbie is a film that will “evoke conversation” and “a mixed bag of opinions.” He said, “And I think ideas behind it – I think the audience will walk away with like a mixed bag of opinions, which I think is the greatest form of entertainment.”

Cena added that he likes the versatility of the movie. He continued, “When you don’t have just one universal feel about a project, it’s not that it’s bad, but I think that people can get into a fiery debate about something, that’s good. I like that versatility, I guess.”
