JACKPOT- Crazy antics in Future-Los Angeles.

 Directed by Paul Feig (“Spy”), it’s set in near-future Los Angeles, a ‘Grand Lottery’ has been established - the catch: kill the winner before sundown to legally claim their multi-billion dollar jackpot. When Katie Kim (Awkwafina) mistakenly finds herself with the winning ticket, she reluctantly joins forces with amateur lottery protection agent Noel Cassidy (John Cena) who must get her to sundown in exchange for a piece of her prize.

Jackpot! is John Cena's third action comedy this year, following Argylle (now streaming on Apple TV+) and Ricky Stanicky (available on Prime Video).

In an interview with ScreenRant, the star opened up about his work with stunt coordinators and how he adapted his own particular physical skill set.

"This one, a lot of their action was practically based and right in my wheelhouse, so I was able to participate in this one a whole lot, which was great," he explained.

"And, really, hats off to our stunt team for trying to tell that action-comedy story like Jackie Chan. Jackie is the greatest physical storyteller of our generation, and it was good to be able to try to walk in his shoes for a little bit."

Jackpot! is now available to watch on Prime Video.
