Looks like Dwayne Johnson has lined himself up with another movie. What is it this time? Babysitter? Remake of Junior? Maybe he will start his own day care! Hiliarity ensues!
What? An action movie? For real? Hell yeah, its about time!!
CinemaBlend says:
Johnson will star in a role that’s pretty well-suited to his “cuddly tough guy” persona, a former Special Forces agent protecting a judge’s 21-year-old daughter from Mexican drug gangs. Mexican drug gangs are quickly becoming the new Communists of American action movies, but I suppose so long as there are dozens and dozens of unexplained murders along the border, they make pretty good boogeymen.
Protection was once a Simon West film with Paul Walker in the lead, the Patrick Alessandrin directing with Clive Owen kicking ass.
Now it looks like the lead belongs to Dwayne Johnson, and no director has yet to be announced.
Its about time Johnson got back to action. I don’t hate him in cuddly intimidating family movies, but I prefer his ass kicking.
