But, despite his growing film career in previous starring roles in “The Marine” and “12 Rounds,” Cena said in an interview for CBSNews.com’s Ken Lombardi that he’s not giving up on the world of professional wrestling anytime soon

NEW YORK (CBS) From Hulk Hogan to The Rock, professional wrestlers have been known on occasion to transition to film once reaching household-name status.

And 바카라 커뮤니티 that’s just what’s happening to John Cena, currently one of the most famous WWE personalities, who now stars in the upcoming drama “Legendary” which also stars Danny Glover and Oscar-nominated actress Patricia Clarkson.

Cena has won the WWE Championship a staggering seven times in a row, garnering him the nickname “The Champ.” He’s gained a loyal fan base with his theatrical presentations in the ring and, now, Cena’s hoping to pounce his rivals at the box office.

But, despite his growing film career in previous starring roles in “The Marine” and “12 Rounds,” Cena said in an interview for CBSNews.com’s Ken Lombardi that he’s not giving up on the world of professional wrestling anytime soon.

“I’m not going anyplace. I’ve filmed three movies now with not sacrificing my WWE schedule at all. I have a system that makes it work,” Cena revealed.

“The first movie I filmed was in Australia. And I still flew back and forth and made all of my WWE commitments. So, if I can be that far from home, and still not miss anything, I know it can be done,” he added.

The Champ has certainly kept up a busy schedule as of late as he rigorously promotes “Legendary.” Cena stars as a Mike, a troubled man estranged from his mother (Clarkson) and little brother Cal (Devon Graye) after the death of his father. Mike re-enters the familial loop when the lanky Cal reaches out for advice after joining the high school wrestling team (a sport familiar to Cena). As he awaits the release of “Legendary,” the wrestling star also revealed how he intends to keep up both careers.

“You’ve got to kind of handle life 24 hours at a time. It just takes time management. I enjoy my career at the WWE so I won’t be leaving anytime soon. I am going to do more movies. I can’t wait to kind of explore the possibilities and capabilities of my acting. But, certainly you’ll be able to see me on all WWE programming,” he said.

Assurances aside, fans can see more of Cena when “Legendary,” which was produced by WWE films, opens in limited release on Sept. 10.

According to WXPI in Pittsburgh, Pa., police say that Acosta was not supposed to be at the Pittsburgh Convention Center during the “American Idol” auditions last week. When asked to vacate the premises, the report states she “refused to leave and became combative.” Acosta is being charged with trespassing and resisting arrest. Acosta admitted to ABC affiliate WTAE in Pittsburgh that she has been traveling to various cities and attempting to audition for the show, and it’s her dream to make it as a singer. “I have a stack this big of airline tickets,” Acosta said to WTAE. “I’ve been to California everywhere. I’ve been to Texas. I’ve been to Arizona. St. Louis. I’ve been to Denver, Colo., here, New York — I can keep going.” The “American Idol” hopeful told both Pittsburgh stations the police report is wrong. She admitted to being questioned by security at the audition, but says one member of the staff told her she was not trespassing and went upstairs to clear the matter. According to Acosta, she was arrested after that person left. She also strongly denies the claim in the police report that she said, “I’m not leaving, this is my dream, my life is ruined.” “I said, ‘I wasted almost $10,000 this summer traveling.’ I’m pretty much broke until I work this weekend,” she told WTAE. “I think it’s going to be better anyways. Christina Aguilera (a ‘Voice’ judge) is from here, so I’d like to compare myself to her, and I love her,” Acosta said to WTAE.
