Could Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson be headed to the Marvel Universe? Well, if Marvel’s Studio Head Kevin Feige has anything to say about it, he will. Feige recently went on record on how he’d love to work with the former wrestling icon, and had this to say:
I think yeah, I mean his name has come up in the past. I’m a gigantic fan of his, I think he’s an incredible – I might have met him once a long time ago, but I haven’t really met him. I don’t really know him – but I think he’s an unbelievable personality and an unbelievable sort of force of nature. He’s awesome in Pain & Gain, he was great in G.I. Joe, he’s really kind of an amazing human being. His Twitter’s always cool and he promotes the hell out of everything he does. I would love him to be part of the Marvel universe somewhere, someday.
I am a huge fan of Johnson, and he’s really begun to have an exciting career as an actor over the last few years. Becoming a mainstay in ‘The Fast and the Furious’ franchise, as well as joining the ‘G.I. Joe’ series has really giving him a chance to show off his action side, while smaller films like ‘Pain and Gain’ and ‘Snitch’ have given him the chance to really show off his acting skills. He’s got a great presence, and I’d love to see him join the fold of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He seems tailor made for the role of Luke Cage, and the actor has expressed interest in the role in the past, so maybe Feige is hinting at something that he’s hoping to make come to fruition soon. I can hope and dream, because I think he’s a perfect fit for the character, and the universe. Would you like to see The Rock join the Marvel Cinematic Universe?
