John Cena visits Lakeland for a commercial shoot

Lakeland had a surprise visit this week from actor and wrestling star John Cena, who was in town to shoot a commercial. The ad was filmed in a south Lakeland neighborhood and production caused quite a commotion near 540A. One of our Instagram followers sent us a

behind-the-scenes video

+ this photo of Cena on set.

It turns out that this may not be Cenaโ€™s first visit to Swan City. Several followers mentioned that he might have family in Lakeland. We know for sure that he has a

$4 million home

in Land Oโ€™ Lakes, just about an hour northwest of Lakeland.

Before heading to set, Cena fueled up like a true Lakelander: at a local coffee shop. The staff at

Concord Coffee

said he stopped by on Tuesday morning. Whatโ€™s the drink of choice for a World Wrestling Entertainment champion? A flat white with whole milk.
