In each episode, Cena will hitch a ride with a new guest for an in-depth interview and curiosity-fueled excursion, as they discuss a wide variety of both laugh-out-loud and deeply personal topics, all the while reminiscing about some of the guest’s favorite memories associated with their prized ride.

“The car you drive and where you drive it can say a lot about who you are, from your personality type to what you value and prioritize the most,” Cena said in a statement. “What Drives You is all about tapping into this and each guest’s unique connection to their car, and a destination close to their heart, as the crux of a candid and wide-ranging conversation. It’s a great opportunity for me to ride shotgun and learn from some of the world’s most entertaining and inspiring individuals.”

What Drives You expands upon Roku’s existing relationship with Cena, as he previously had a role in Kevin Hart’s comedy series Die Hart 2: Die Harter. He also executive produced the upcoming docuseries WWE Superstars of Tomorrow, which he will also be featured in.

What Drives You is produced by ITV America’s Leftfield Pictures. David George, Shawn Witt, Sean Moran, Jay Bienstock, John Cena and Dan Baime are the series’ executive producers. Sean Boyle oversees the series on behalf of Roku Originals.
