Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is just not only making headlines as The Final Boss in WWE but can also be making major strides in Hollywood.
The Rock will now star in an exciting latest drama directed by Martin Scorsese, alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and Emily Blunt.
This film is predicated on the true story of a tricky Hawaiian crime boss. It is going to portray organized crime in Hawaii and have a personality just like Robert De Niro’s Jimmy the Gent from Goodfellas. This protagonist faces challenges and rivals as he tries to take control of the Hawaiian underworld.
Nick Bilton writes the screenplay, and Scorsese, The Rock, Blunt, DiCaprio, Bilton, Dany Garcia, Lisa Frechette, and Rick Yorn are all producing the film.
This project is very vital to The Rock because he has strong personal connections to Hawaii and has all the time desired to make a movie set in his homeland.
The Rock will even reunite with Blunt in A24’s Smashing Machine. This film, directed by Benny Safdie, will likely be released later this yr.
The Rock confirmed the Martin Scorsese project on social media, writing, “Grateful for what’s been probably the most creatively inspiring time of my profession – working closely with my friends and naturally, the maestro Marty Scorsese. Within the 60’s, 70’s & 80’s the mafia-controlled Latest York, Miami, Chicago, Vegas, and a very strong hold on the island I used to be raised – Hawaii.”
