8 Completely Ridiculous Movie Concepts Currently In Development

8. Rampage

Despite Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson's ability to create bona-fide hits out of pretty much anything he touches, it's hard to imagine him turning the 'Rampage' video-game series into anything that remotely resembles time well spent.

The plot of the game is as follows; there isn't one. It's pure large-scale destruction, featuring a combination of giant ape, lizard and werewolf eating humans, crippling vehicles and toppling skyscrapers until the city is completely levelled.

From that premise, it's safe to assume that the movie will pack one hell of a visual punch - but given that it's from the team behind last year's San Andreas, how will Rampage be anything more than just repetitive destruction-porn and cheesy one-liners?

Development Status: First announced in 2011, The Rock and his San Andreas director - Brad Peyton - joined the production in summer 2015. In a post on his Instagram page in early 2016, the muscle-mountain himself stated that shooting 'begins late this summer,' so expect to see Rampage on the big-screen fairly soon.
