‘Surf’s Up 2: Wavemania’ Update: WWE Stars in Sequel

By

"Surf's Up 2: Wavemania," the sequel to the animated film of the same name, features WWE Superstars Triple H, John Cena, The Undertaker, Paige and Vince McMahon voicing penguins. The movie is expected to arrive in DVD shelves next year.

Vince McMahon, according to The Independent, plays a coiffure sea lion while Triple H, The Undertaker, Paige and John Cena play penguins that closely resemble the WWE characters they play on TV. The characters names all but confirms that as John Cena plays 'JC', The Undertaker plays 'Undertaker', Triple H plays 'Hunter' while Paige plays a character that is also named 'Paige.'

WWE Studios makes several movies every year and they are leaning towards aiming the younger audience with their most recent crossover being direct to DVD movie, "Scooby Doo and the Curse of the Speed Demon." It features WWE Superstars teaming up with Scooby Doo and the gang to solve a mystery.

The 5 newcomers voiced by WWE superstars, according to Metro, will be known as The Hang 5, a slightly and edgy terrifying hardcore group of surfers. The sequel follows Cody Maverick (Shia LeBeouf) convincing The Hang 5 to join him conquer a mysterious surfing spot known as 'The Trenches', where it is rumored they will find the biggest saves in the land. As seen on the trailer, the Hang 5 has a pretty solid entrance with a seagull introducing them by saying, "Put them together for the Hang 5, the most extreme team surfing the Earth and living the dream."

"Surf's Up: Wavemania" is directed by Henry Yu and written by Abdul Williams. After the success of the "Surf's Up", stars Jon Heder, Shia LaBeouf and Mario Cantone all pointed towards a sequel being made but it was not until earlier this year that Sony announced it was working with WWE for a sequel.
