Priyanka Chopra recently made a sweet admission about John Cena.
In a recent interview with PEOPLE Magazine, the former Indian actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas discussed working with John Cena and Idris Elba in the action-comedy flick, Heads of State.
Sharing her experience, Priyanka said, “It was so wonderful to learn by observing them.”
She went on to speak highly of their work ethic and added, “Both of them are such professionals,” noting, “I was very fortunate to be in that company."
She even referenced a scene from the series and added, “They know what it takes to elevate a scene in the action-comedy world especially. Timing is so important and they both have such good timing.”
The Citadel star went on to say that the pair is “both so different and incredible in their own ways,” she continued.
“I really learned improvisation. They’re not afraid to feel stupid. They're not afraid to say the wrong thing,” the wife of Nick Jonas gushed over her co-star before mentioning “that John played the piano in his trailer.”
Admitting she “loved” how John Cena set the “fun” tone of the flick, Priyanka stated, “There’d be this gorgeous, really beautiful ballad coming out of his trailer and you'd just walk past and there's John sitting in his suit and tie hunched over his piano,” concluded with a laugh, “He's really good! And he's hilarious and he really doesn't care, but at the same time, he cares so much.”
