The people over at Variety, have learned that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is ready to star in the upcoming revenge movie FASTER. Some guy by the name of George Tillman Jr. is asking about directing.
The movie will be about The Rock hunting down some dudes who killed his brother when they were double-crossed during a heist. I like this premise; it’s simple and leaves a lot of room for hitting and car-chases. I also like that they are making it so The Rock isn’t technically a good-guy. He’s a bad-guy who is pissed that other bad-guys were bad to him. I think we can all relate to that.
I really hope this movie is good because I like The Rock and he has been making a lot of crap lately. I honestly feel that he could have seized the title of this decades “Action Man” if someone had told him to stay away from a lot of the movies that he’s done, but it’s not over yet. The Rock can still take charge and a solid revenge flick might just be the vehicle for him to do it.
