It seems that Dwayne Johnson is the man to call to pump life into a dying franchise, or bring an old one back to life. The Fast and the Furious, Jumanji, and soon the DCEU will all have benefitted from The Rock’s presence and box office draw, but what about a franchise that is as alive as it has ever been?

There is no end to the characters Dwayne Johnson could potentially bring to the screen from the pages of Marvel Comics, and it would seem that he himself is eager to do so, even if it may not be right away.

The former WWE superstar was cast as Black Adam almost a full decade ago, and right now he is fully behind this passion project of his. However, he has reportedly met with Kevin Feige multiple times over the years, and would be incredibly keen to make the jump to Marvel one day.

From Dario Agger to Wonder Man, Namor, or even Black Bolt, there is no shortage of heroes, villains, or anything in between that The Rock could bring to the MCU. When exactly it will happen is anyone’s guess, but surely it’s only a matter of time.
