Fans have expressed shock after discovering that John Cena and Jason Earles, best known for playing Jackson Stewart on Disney's Hannah Montana, are both 43 years old.
On Monday, a Twitter user shared screenshots of the birthdays of the former WWE star and the actor, writing: 'If you want to have your mind blown: John Cena and Jackson from Hannah Montana are the exact same age.'
Earles was 29 when he began portraying the 16-year-old character in the hit series. The revelation prompted a flurry of reactions online, with one user commenting: 'Jackson is 43??????' alongside a clip of Lois Griffin from Family Guy.
Another joked: 'The only thing blowing my mind is the fact that you’re talking about John Cena when he’s not even in the picture,' referencing Cena's WWE catchphrase 'you can’t see me.' A third simply wrote: 'Time is a myth.'
Cena himself once appeared as a guest star on Hannah Montana, giving fans a visual comparison of the two age-mates.
