Dwayne Johnson confirms that he will shoot for the “maestro” Martin Scorsese
The Rock savor the “creative most inspiring period” of her career.
Dwayne Johnson find a smile. After the flops of Black Adam And Red Onehis image had taken a hit. With the added bonus of testimonies on his non -professional behavior in filming gathered in an article of The Wrap (partially denied) denouncing his delays and his bad habit of peeing in a bottle …
If we remember that Cruise jungle (2021) had also been a failure, and that we put aside the Hit Netflix Red notice With Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot (a lot stremed but destroyed by critics), you have to go back to 2019 and Jumanji: Next Level To find the trace of a box of The Rock at the box office. A reality not very connected with its status of superstar connected with the public.
But you shouldn’t bury Dwayne Johnson too quickly. Last summer, he turned and produced The Smashing Machine With Benny Safdie behind the camera and her girlfriend Emily Blunt in Co-Star. An A24 film where he played an MMA star that could be found at Cannes Film Festival Next May. And that’s not all.

We have recently learned the existence of a project bringing together Martin Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio, Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt. A mafia story described as a mixture between Infiltrated And The freed In Hawaii, which Johnson and Blunt proposed to Scorsese and DiCaprio, which were seduced by the pitch.
Between two posts on its tequila brand and its range of beauty products, The Rock has just shared on its Instagram account a screenshot of the article of Deadlinepublished a few weeks ago, thus confirming the existence of the project.
“”I go through the most inspiring period of my career and I am grateful. I work closely with my friends and of course the Maestro Martin Scorsese. In the 1960s, 70s and 80s, the mafia controlled New York, Miami, Chicago, Vegas and had the stranglehold on the island where I grew up, Hawaii.“”
Please note, we know Hollywood and despite this post we cannot be 100% sure that this film will indeed see the day, nor that Martin Scorsese will realize it. The filmmaker is involved in a string of projects, and according to Deadline The script is still being written. But this is an opportunity for The Rock to show on social networks that he is always popular.
After looking for years to be a box office beast, Dwayne Johnson therefore seems to focus on more prestigious projects and we are curious to see what this new stage of his cinema journey will give.
