"Matchbox" will be produced by Skydance’s David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Don Granger, and Robbie Brenner for Mattel Films.

Sam Hargrave will direct. The movie will be based on a screenplay by David Coggeshall and Jonathan Tropper.

Matchbox toy cars were invented in 1953 by automotive enthusiast Jack Odell. His daughter was allowed to take a toy to school only if it was small enough to fit in a matchbox.

Cena has experience in car movies, starring as Jakob in the Fast & Furious franchise.

Cena is set to embark on his WWE retirement tour in 2025. Fans can learn more by clicking here.
