John Cena explained why sex scene with Amy Schumer where he was ‘inside her’ was ‘real embarrassing’

He's spoken out about the 'embarrassing' scene

No matter how many weird and random roles he plays, there’s a few performances from John Cena that stand out.

And no, I’m not including his less than a minute as a merman alongside Dua Lipa in Barbie. But his role as gym rat Steven in Trainwreck has to be up there.

He’s one of the boyfriends who Amy Schumer’s character has before finally meeting the right guy. And part of their relationship is a rather comedic sex scene when Steven promises to ‘fill you with protein’.

But while it all sounds like a bit of a laugh, Cena explained why the scene where he was ‘inside her’ was ‘real embarrassing’.

With Steven already struggling to ‘talk dirty’ and ‘mix it up a little bit’ as requested, it escalates as he ends up throwing out phrases in Mandarin.

So, not only is it cringe to watch but apparently it was cringe to film.

Cena told the Club Shay Shay podcast: “Amy is an angel, she made the environment so comfortable, and then when I got the part, eventually they were like, 'Yeah, it's a sex scene. We want you to do elaborate and crazy stunt sex, and all those lines you had?

We're probably not going to use them, we're just going to do this stunt sex scene.’”

He then went on to signal to the crew at the podcast recording as he said ‘there’s a whole f**king world back there’.

“There are so many people you need to make a movie. There is nothing intimate about it. Nothing,” Cena explained

“So it's real embarrassing, and on top of that, to do a comedic sex scene when you're making fun of yourself.”

Having felt pretty embarrassed on set, the WWE legend then didn’t go home and tell his partner all about it, instead keeping her in the dark.

Cena was dating Nikki Bella at the time as he explained in an interview with Conan he hadn’t expected to get the role in the first place.

He said: “Honestly I didn’t think I’d get the part. I kept putting it off not telling Nicole and not having the discussion of, ‘Hey there may be some graphic scenes.’

“So I got it and I couldn’t say no, so I kind of walked in one day and was like, ‘Hey, I’m kind of just doing this.’ And that was the wrong approach.”

“She has such beautiful brown eyes and they glowed with red hellfire.”

Cena finally said: “She has such a great smile but she turned into like the alien and the predator at once.”
