Dwayne Johnson Set To Star In #JungleCruise

THR is reporting Dwayne Johnson is teaming up with Disney to translate a theme park ride to the big-screen. Johnson is attached to star in Jungle Cruise , based on the classic ride, while John Requa and Glenn Ficarra, the duo behind the Will Smith heist movie Focus, have been tapped to write the script. The duo, who have directed movies such as Focus and Stupid Crazy Love , are not attached to helm at this stage. John Davis and John Fox of Davis Entertainment, the banner behind Man From U.N.C.L.E, are producing. Johnson’s involvement once again puts the Jungle boat back into the water after a multi-year dry-dock phase. Disney has been trying to mount a movie based on the popular ride since at least 2004, during the years when the success of The Pirates of the Caribbean set sail many ride-based projects. Jungle Cruise is one of the Disneyland’s original rides and has a retro adventure vibe, transporting parkgoers into a mélange of African settings such as the Nile Rive
