The Greta Gerwig-directed fantasy comedy stars an ensemble cast with several stars playing Barbie and Ken, like Ryan Gosling, Alexandra Shipp, Simu Liu, Dua Lipa, John Cena and more.

Today, we are telling you about how the former wrestler landed the role of merman Ken, which saw him rock some luscious locks and soak in the seas of Barbieland with Dua Lipa’s mermaid Barbie. According to the film’s leading lady, Cena was offered the part owing to his chivalrous gesture when she met him in England. Read on to know about it.

While interacting with the host on ‘Insight with Chris Van Vliet’ (via Looper), Margot Robbie got candid and revealed details bout how John Cena joined the cast of Greta Gerwig’s blockbuster film. The actress said, “It happened while we were shooting in London. I ran into him at a restaurant… I went to pay the bill and they were like, ‘John Cena already took care of it.’ I was like, ‘What?! Where is he?’ I mean, he’s a big guy… he’s hard to hide.”
