John Cena will be starring in "The Marine: Homefront", one of three WWE Studios films being produced for a direct to DVD release as part of a new deal the Studio has signed with 20th Century FOX, according to Deadline.com. The Studios' existing DVD deal with Viviendi will expire with the release of "Bending the Rules" starring Edge and Jamie Kennedy. That film is expected to be released in April.
"The Marine" starring Cena was released theatrically in October 2006, making $18,844,784 at the box office. It was, to date, the most successful WWE Studios film release. The sequel, starring Ted DiBiase Jr., was released direct to DVD.
WWE has worked with Fox in the past with film distribution for the original Marine, See No Evil and the direct to DVD Behind Enemy Lines: Colombia.
One of the other films is expected to star CM Punk, as WWE Studios have actively seeking a project they can place him in.
