Report: John Cena eyed for lead role in 'Knight Rider' reboot

John Cena could be adding another major movie to his resume.

The WWE superstar, who will star opposite Hailee Steinfeld in the upcoming "Transformers" spin-off "Bumblebee," is also being targeted for the lead in a comedic reboot of "Knight Rider," according to Chris Agar of ScreenRant.

The Weinstein Company, the studio behind the project, reportedly envisions Cena in the role of Michael Knight, which was played by David Hasselhoff in the 1980s television series, and comedian Kevin Hart as the potential voice of KITT. Agar notes that neither Cena nor Hart have been officially cast, and that "the Weinstein Company is simply interested in getting them on-board."
