NEW YORK (CBS) From Hulk Hogan to The Rock, professional wrestlers have been known on occasion to transition to film once reaching household-name status.

And that's just what's happening to John Cena, currently one of the most famous WWE personalities, who now stars in the upcoming drama "Legendary" which also stars Danny Glover and Oscar-nominated actress Patricia Clarkson.

Cena has won the WWE Championship a staggering seven times in a row, garnering him the nickname "The Champ." He's gained a loyal fan base with his theatrical presentations in the ring and, now, Cena's hoping to pounce his rivals at the box office.

But, despite his growing film career in previous starring roles in "The Marine" and "12 Rounds," Cena said in an interview for CBSNews.com's Ken Lombardi that he's not giving up on the world of professional wrestling anytime soon.

"I'm not going anyplace. I've filmed three movies now with not sacrificing my WWE schedule at all. I have a system that makes it work," Cena revealed.

"The first movie I filmed was in Australia. And I still flew back and forth and made all of my WWE commitments. So, if I can be that far from home, and still not miss anything, I know it can be done," he added.
