John Cena opens up on chance Margot Robbie meeting that got him Barbie role
Actor John Cena has revealed how he came to play the part of Merman Ken in Barbie, in what he described as a âhappy accidentâ.
The professional wrestler recalled how a chance encounter with Barbie actress Margot Robbie led to his role.
In an interview with Good Morning Britain on Wednesday (24 January), the 46-year-old said: âIn a completely happy accident, we ran into each other while filming in London. We were both at a restaurant and she said âWhy are you not in Barbie?â and I said âI tried, you guys wouldnât have meâ.
âShe turned to decision-makers at the table and gave them the nod and then the next day I got a call.â
