Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is headlining an adaptation of the popular video game title Rampage. The game was extremely thin on plot, but according to Dwayne Johnson, the movie has some semblance of a story. In fact, he took to Instagram recently to give some details on the upcoming creature-feature:
“I head up an anti poaching unit out of Rwanda. My best friend is a rare albino gorilla named, George. Very bad people infect George, an alligator and a wolf with a serum. All three animals grow at an unprecedented rate. Their size, speed, agility and violent aggression is off the charts. They go on a deadly rampage and want to destroy the world. George not happy. Me not happy. When animals like you, they lick you. When they don’t like you, they kill you. I will hunt down the bad people who did this to my best friend.”
Video game movies aren’t going anywhere. Regardless of their quality, these movies occasionally rake in tons of cash. You know what else prints money? Putting Dwayne Johnson in a movie. This is a match made in heaven.
Rampage is set for release on April 20th 2018, and is directed by Brad Peyton (San Andreas) with a cast that includes Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson (Baywatch), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (The Walking Dead), Naomie Harris (Moonlight) Malin Akerman (The Final Girls), Joe Manganiello (The Batman) and Jake Lacy (Obvious Child).
