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 Cena’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 O’ 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. What’s the drink of choice for a World Wrestling Entertainment champion? A flat white with whole milk.
