It seems Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson may yet star in The Wolfman movie reboot, as part of Universal’s newly-announced Dark Universe franchise.
So much also holds true for The Rock being cast as The Wolfman, even though it’s been close to a year now since that particular Dark Universe casting rumor first started making the rounds.
THR, as part of a feature that examines Universal’s hopes for the Dark Universe, notes that rumors persist that Johnson will star in The Wolfman down the line, provided that The Mummy and Bride of Frankenstein are successful enough for Universal to justify moving ahead with additional monster movie reboots.
That’s not even an all-encompassing list of Johnson vehicles that are currently in development, so the actor may yet prove to simply be too busy to work on The Wolfman for Universal.
