John Cena is teaming up with celebrity friends and hitting the road for his first-ever talk show, What Drives You. Cena’s new series, which expands his relationship with Roku, focuses on our relationship with our cars.
“The car you drive and where you drive it can say a lot about who you are, from your personality type to what you value and prioritize the most,” stated Cena. “What Drives You is all about tapping into this and each guest’s unique connection to their car, and a destination close to their heart, as the crux of a candid and wide-ranging conversation. It’s a great opportunity for me to ride shotgun and learn from some of the world’s most entertaining and inspiring individuals.”
ITV America’s Leftfield Pictures is producing the eight-episode series, with Cena, David George, Shawn Witt, Sean Moran, Jay Bienstock, and Dan Baime executive producing.
“We’re thrilled to partner with John Cena and Leftfield Pictures to bring our audience What Drives You, a talk series that converges John’s passions of cars, conversation, and entertainment,” said Brian Tannenbaum, Head of Originals, Roku Media. “John infuses extraordinary energy into every conversation he has, giving viewers an under-the-hood look into the lives of each guest.”
Roku offers this description of the new series:
“Cena is revving up the engine in What Drives You, a breakthrough talk show format, where he’ll hit the road with his celebrity friends in their favorite vehicles that hold a special meaning to them. In each episode, he’ll hitch a ride with a new guest for an in-depth interview and curiosity-fueled excursion as they discuss a wide variety of both laugh-out-loud and deeply personal topics, all the while reminiscing about some of the guest’s favorite memories associated with their prized ride.”
