Witchy Rock

August 29, 2007 by Sam Sloan   || Category: Film News

johnson_dwayne-therock.jpgDewayne “The Rock” Johnson has passed on the next Scorpion King flick (listen to our Show #124 this Saturday for details), and “Spy Hunter” keeps getting delayed. We know he has fully retired from the wrestling ring, so just what is the mega-action star up to these days?

Can you say Disney?

That’s right, according to news from Variety Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will star in a sequel to “Witch Mountain” for Walt Disney Pictures. Andy Fickman is directing, and the studio will begin production in March.

“The Rock” will play a Las Vegas cab driver who picks up a pair of siblings with magical powers. Plot advances the storyline from the original “Escape to Witch Mountain,” which Disney released in 1975.

Johnson, who most recently starred in the drama “Gridiron Gang,” stars next summer alongside Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway in “Get Smart” for Warner Bros.

Netflix, Inc.
