For fans that have longed to see John Cena as a heel in the WWE, his upcoming film The Nest will likely be the closest they ever get, and a photo of Cena on the set of the film has leaked.

Cena will play a "bad guy" in the movie and a photo of Cena adorned with tattoos and wearing a beanie and wife beater surfaced on social media:

Many WWE fans have longed for Cena to turn heel, but given his connection to the young fan-base, the WWE's PG rating, Cena's merchandise sales and his various Make-A-Wish appearances, the company has balked on changing his character.

Cena missed Monday's episode of RAW due to filming the movie and has another movie, Trainwreck, to film soon which means he will miss some more time in the squared circle.

There has been reports of backstage talk that Cena may eventually leave the squared circle for a full-time acting career, similar to what Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson did when he took a seven-year hiatus from the company and came back in a part-time role.

Cena is the face of the WWE right now and has been for the last decade, but there are some Superstars backstage joking that he may come in "via satellite" soon for the company as The Rock started to do when his Hollywood career was booming.

Cena likely has a few more years left in the tank, but it also remains possible that he will eventually star in movies if these two films go well. Cena has sustained a lot of injuries and wear-and-tear over the years, so it is definitely possible he'll seek a career in Hollywood once his in-ring run dies down.

For now, Cena is the No. 1 face in the company and will battle Brock Lesnar in what should be an epic main event at SummerSlam on Aug. 17 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Cena is the top babyface in the WWE, and for those who want to see him turn heel, that picture may have to last a lifetime.
