ComingSoon.net’s Alice Chapman Newgen had a recent chat with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, the wrestler-turned-actor who has a pair of video game adaptations in the pipeline. While his "Doom" opens this Friday, Mr. Johnson looks toward "Spy Hunter," which should go into production as soon as the script is ready.
"He said, "…Right now I’m concentrating on ‘Spy-Hunter’. I just did the motion capture for ‘Spy-Hunter’, the video game, ‘Spy-Hunter 3’, which is pretty cool because it allows you to get out of the car now. Yeah, it’s really cool. It will be with Universal. This is one of those projects where we’ve had eight writers on it, on ‘Spy-Hunter’–great writers too.
"Millions of dollars being spent, but it’s one of those things where you really don’t want to rush it. You just don’t want to make just any type of movie. It’s such a special movie conceptually. It’s so cool with the car. And you’re the hunter of spies. Stuart Beattie we all believe will come through. He wrote ‘Pirates of the Caribbean‘ and ‘Collateral,’ so we’re waiting–fingers crossed. It should be in in about a week.""
