Dwayne Johnson wants to suit up as 007

Dwayne Johnson has said he wants to play the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:next James Bond.
"Yes, my grandfather was a Bond villain in You Only Live Twice with Sean Connery," Johnson told . "[It] was very, very cool. And I would like to follow i🀅n his footsteps and b▨e the next Bond. I don't want to be a villain. Got to be Bond."
Johnson's grandfather, Peter Fanene Maivia, appeared in the 1967 film as a SPECTRE henchman, and went head to head with Connery's Bond in a fight that saw him try and take out the agent wi༒th a sword.
Daniel Craig hung up his license to kill in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:No Time to Die, and speculation has been running rampant about who could next be 007 ever since. Johnson throwing his hat into the ring is probably tongue-in-cheek – and while he'd certainly be able to handle the action scenes, he might be ruled out purely because an American actor has never pl🌼ayed Bond.
Johnson is about to enter another huge franchise, though. He's starring as Black Adam in the upcoming film of the same name, which got its 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:first look at DC FanDome. A former Bond also appears in t❀he film &n🦩dash; Pierce Brosnan plays Doctor Fate.
"That a wrap on BLACK ADAM. Incredible journey," 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查🔥询:Johnson said to mark the end of filming. "Hardest undertaking of my entire career physically & mentallyไ. Worth every secౠond. Boundless gratitude to my 1,000+ crew members, actors and director, Jaume Collet-Serra. The hierarchy of power in DC Universe is changing."
Black Adam releases July 29, 2022. Johnson can currently be seen in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Red Notice, starring opposite Gal Gadot and Ryan Reynolds. If you're all caught up on the Netflix movie, check out our conversation with 𝔍director Rawson Marshall Thurber.
