John Cena has garnered significant attention for his performance in DC’s Peacemaker show. His co-star, Frank Grillo, who plays Rick Flag Sr., gushed about the wrestler-turned-actor in an interview with Collider. “He’s a terrific actor. He’s fantastic. With all the stuff that he does, he’s got a very complex role. He makes it look easy, but it’s not.”
Grillo continued, “He really is doing something that is difficult, and I appreciate him for that. And then, he’s John Cena, on top of it, and he’s got to make you forget that for a little while.” He added, “I love working with him. The guy is a consummate professional. He’s always positive. There’s no diva stuff. He’s just so giving and self-effacing. I can say that about everybody in the cast.”
The actor noted, “It’s a great group of people who are all very seasoned and accomplished, and everybody’s there for the same reason. They want to serve this, they love doing it, and it shows on screen. And the captain of the ship is James Gunn, so he’s equally crazy.”
Peacemaker season two is currently streaming on HBO MAX.
