John Cena’s “Legendary” Draws Poor Early Box Office Sales

September 12, 2010

WWE’s latest film offering, "Legendary," starring John Cena, took in $135,000 in its opening weekend according to The Wrestling Observer. This number, while poor, should not be surprising, as the movie was only screened in 177 theatres nationwide. The feeling is that WWE hopes to make more money off the DVD sales of the film, as the company’s new trend is to speed its films into DVD production, focusing on a quicker DVD turn around than most movies have.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
