Disney is in talks to turn Tomorrowland, one of the sections of the Disneyland theme park, into a feature-length space movie that will star Dwayne Johnson.
According to
Variety, the studio has set scribes Jon Lucas and Scott Moore to draft an epic-sized action adventure set in space. The film is being designed as a vehicle for Johnson, who starred for the studio in family hit
The Game Plan and most recently completed
Race to Witch Mountain.
Disney denies the film has been titled "Tomorrowland" or is dedicated to the park's section, a futuristic area of the Magic Kingdom that includes such attractions as Space Mountain. The studio called the nascent project an original script.
No production date has been set.

I'd rather see him do Spy Hunter, especially since he already has a game out about that.
Leave Disney alone, Dwayne! Go back to the action movies.
Quick, somebody stick a machine gun in his hand! And feed him. He's getting too damn skinny.
The Game Plan - 90.6 million
Scorpion King - 90.5 million
The Rundown - 47.6 million
Walking Tall - 46.2 million
Gridiron Gang - 38.4 million
Doom - 28.2 million
He wasn't the Main Actor in the following:
Mummy Returns - 202.0 million
Get Smart - 129.0 million
Be Cool - 55.8 million
The movie that made the most money was Disney's The Game Plan. Is there any wonder why they're going back to him? The only action movie that came close to that was Scorpion King.
I don't think he's THAT bad of an actor, in fact, he's got a whole lot better since he started... but he STILL really can't make the big buck that studios are looking for.
We'll see in the near future as he is scheduled for G.I. Joe, Planet 51, Spy Hunter, and Shazam. Let's see if he can turn things around actually make us WANT to go see his movies. I doubt it.
Whos there?
