"Rock" Dwayne Johnson Number of Movies in the Works — Here's a List

http://thetruerumours.blogspot.com.ng/

Hollywood’s unstoppable force and immovable object is Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson, the wrestler turned actor who returns to theaters later this month alongside Kevin Hart in the eagerly anticipated action-comedy Central Intelligence. It’s merely the first in an enormously long line of projects (including this July’s second season of HBO’s Ballers) set to keep the superstar in the spotlight for years to come. While Johnson cannily uses Twitter and Instagram to keep fans up-to-date about his plans, the recent barrage of announcements about his upcoming roles has been nothing short of overwhelming — which is why we’ve compiled a rundown of the all the would-be blockbusters the Rock is presently cooking for audiences.


Moana

Johnson may boast a larger-than-life physique, but he’ll assume even grander form in Moana, an animated Disney release in which he voices Maui, a demigod who aids heroine Moana (Auli’I Cravalho) in her search for a fabled island. As the below video of Johnson performing a traditional Maori “Haka” suggests, he’ll be bringing his trademark intensity to his vocal performance. (Release date: Nov. 23)

Fast 8 (and possibly a franchise spinoff, and/or Fast 9 and Fast 10)
Johnson provided afterburner-grade electricity to the Fast and the Furious franchise when he joined in 2011 with Fast Five. He’ll again return to the fold for next April’s Fast 8, in which he reprises his role as DSA agent Hobbs. Last week, the actor posted a first photo of himself from the set via Instagram (sporting a badass biker look). The message that accompanied it made clear that he has additional plans for Hobbs — possibly in a spinoff film, or future Fast installments. (Release date: April 14, 2017)

Baywatch
For months, Johnson has been posting photos and updates about Baywatch, an action-comedy adaptation of the popular ’90s drama that will co-star Zac Efron and feature cameos from original stars David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson. Having just wrapped principal photography, and set for May 2017, it should be one of next summer’s earliest (and possibly biggest) hits. (Release date: May 19, 2017)
Jumanji

Later this fall, Johnson will begin production on a reboot of Jumanji, the Robin Williams-headlined 1995 fantasy adventure about a board game whose jungle creatures come to lethal life. Bad Teacher’s Jake Kasdan will be directing, and (as-yet-unconfirmed) rumors indicate that Johnson will be joined by his Central Intelligence co-star Kevin Hart. (Release date: December 2017)
