Variety has revealed that Dwayne Johnson (Pain & Gain, Hercules) will team-up with Kevin Hart (Think Like a Man Too, Ride Along) for the buddy action-comedy Central Intelligence, which is to be directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber (Dodgeball, We’re the Millers).
According to the site, “the story begins with a class reunion approaching, as a former high school sports star turned accountant (Hart) is contacted by a classmate (Johnson) who was bullied and humiliated back in the day. The ‘loser’ that the accountant remembers is now a CIA contract killer who ropes him into helping foil a plot to sell classified military secrets.”
Central Intelligence is slated to begin filming in the Spring.
