Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is making big moves not only as an actor but as a business man as well. According to the latest reports, Dwayne, who shares a long-standing relationship with Walt Disney Pictures, has inked a first-look deal with them.
Dwayne Johnson and Dany Garcia’s Seven Bucks Productions will develop theatrical and streaming films with Disney. The Hollywood A-lister, according to the agreement, will potentially star them in too.
According to Variety, it is a multi-year deal. For the unversed, Dwayne Johnson and Disney go a long way back. They earlier collaborated before including 2021 theme park ride-inspired Jungle Cruise which also starred Emily Blunt.
Disney and Dwayne also worked together on two seasons of Behind the Attraction for Disney+. And, interestingly, the Hollywood biggie is returning to Disney in Moana 2 in November where he will do the voice role of the grandiose demigod Maui.
For the unversed, Moana 2 trailer video garnered 178 million views, setting new milestones for Disney animation. Disney views Moana as a cornerstone picture because it was one of the most streamed films in the United States for a number of years after earning over $687 million at the global box office.
