Not too long ago the ‘news’ source We Got This Covered (WGTC) reported that Paramount Pictures were looking at rebooting Terminator again (Terminator 7) with Margot Robbie and John Cena. News of Margot Robbie and John Cena potentially bringing some fresh blood to the franchise actually didn’t go down too well with the majority of Terminator Fans, but it hasn’t stopped fan art depicting John Cena as a potential candidate to take the mantle of T-800 from Arnold Schwarzenegger; who portrayed the infamous Cyberdyne Systems Model 101 T-800 Terminator unit.

What do you guys think? Will the Terminator as John Cena protect us or kill us?
The artwork is interesting and gives us a look at what wrestler / actor, Cena, could look like as the T-800 – but with the growth of influencer art hitting social media… is this something that would actually work in a feature film?
It’s long overdue that the franchise explore new T-800 Cyberdyne Systems Models and the Netflix Anime series by Skydance could be doing just that by giving us some new Cyberdyne Systems Models to enjoy whilst also answering fans cries of providing a potential true genesis to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Model 101 appearance.
So who should play a new Model of Terminator?
There have been many suggestions put out into the ether from fans and social media influencers, suggestions ranging from from Nicholas Cage (The Cageinator), to Arnold look-alike Calum Von Moger, to Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. We ourselves mentioned that we wouldn’t mind Brett Azar (young T-800s in both Terminator Genisys and Dark Fate) having a stab at the job; seeing as he has already portrayed a CSM-101 twice in the Skydance Terminator movies.
John Cena as T-800 CSM-102?
The hardcore fans among us, of course know, that another 800 series Infiltrator the CSM-102 ‘Future Terminator‘ (also known as T-808 and T-810) was portrayed by Franco Columbu in The Terminator (1984). So we can’t approve of John Cena taking the 102 serial but the artwork reinforces that it is time we see more of those CSM numbers, with many numbers up for the taking to expand and enhance upon the Terminator mythos…
The future of the franchise now hinges on a Terminator Anime series, so if Cena is actually a consideration for studios (and fans) for a theatrical Terminator 7, then maybe they should test it out in the anime by using his likeness and have him voice a Terminator – to allow the fans to decide if they want more… ?
Would we pick John Cena to play a new Terminator?
The honest answer would be a resounding no, but at this stage in the currently stagnant franchise, it might just be best to let Hollywood do what it’s going to do, even if it results in new failure and more wrong decisions.
They can always continue to blame fans for not being supportive enough if another movie bombs at the box office again…
Would you like to see John Cena become a T-800? If yes, what model number would you give him? Rremember 101 and 102 are taken. Let us know in the comments below.

Id love to see cena play a villanous t800 role!! Maybe a CS model 103?? I think maybe hed need to put a deeper more robotic voice on?? I think arnie needs one more chance at the t800 villainous role!! Were sick of the protector role now!! I think with age he could be the most evil clever terminator yet! And pretend to be good!? But hes loyal to skynet because theyve learned the chips can be manipulated! So they will do their bidding if they have to lie etc to the humans?? But in the end skynet wins as they are machines!
JOHN CENA LOOKS EXCELLENT TO PLAY THE ROLE OF A NEW TERMINATOR, INSTEAD OF THE WAR AGAINST THE MACHINES IT WOULD BE GOOD IF THEY TAKE THE IDEA OF REPLACING THE HUMANS, A HUMANITY INVADED BY THE MACHINES BUT, UNDERSTOOD, A HIDDEN INVASION, NOT A BATTLE WITH EXPLOSIONS, BUT MORE IN THE STYLE OF THE INVASION OF BODY SNATCHERS, CAPABLE OF MIMETIZING AND REPLACING HUMANS. THAT WOULD BE WITH A MORE MODEST BUDGET. BUT IT’S JUST AN OPINION.
Cena as the Terminator looks and sounds terrible, he just comes off as too much of a nice guy. That’s like casting Henry Cavil or Chris Hemsworth as the Terminator. You need more than a mountain of muscles to be intimating enough to play a/the Terminator. Im not suggesting it, but I could picture Bautista as the Terminator over Cena. I think if the new Terminator 7 goes back to being more horror based, we could probably get someone who doesn’t really need much acting chops, but more physical presence, a force to be reckon with. They could pull from the body building community and get Calum Von Moger, he looks a lot like Arnold, and is much more intimating than Cena.
