Always keeping busy, Dwayne Johnson recently wrapped filming on director Brett Ratner’s Hercules, moved right into filming Fast and Furious 7, and is now lining up another future project. The Rock is set to star in and executive produce a supernatural action movie titled SEAL Team 666.

The movie, as you may have presumed, follows a elite group of Navy SEALs who will battle their way through demons, possessed humans, mass-murdering cults, and other threats on the way to discovering a much greater evil force intent on destroying the world.

Universal Pictures
Rated PG-13 | 130 Minutes

Directed by Justin Lin, Fast & Furious 6 reunites Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker) for their fastest, most furious adventure yet.

After 2011’s Fast Five, the Fast Familyâ„¢ of professional criminals has retired around the world: Dominic lives with Elena (Elsa Pataky) in Spain; his sister Mia (Jordana Brewster) and Brian have a son; Gisele (Gal Gadot) and Han (Sung Kang) are in Tokyo; and Roman (Tyrese Gibson) and Tej (Chris “Ludacris” Bridges) are livin’ it up like billionaire millionaire playboys.

U.S. Diplomatic Security Service agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) offers Toretto’s crew full pardons so they can return home in exchange for helping him take down a skilled mercenary organization led by Owen Shaw (Luke Evans) and his second-in-command, Dominic’s presumed-dead girlfriend Letty Ortiz (Michelle Rodriguez).

Pain & Gain Poster OfficialPain & Gain
Director: Michael Bay
Screenwriter(s): Christopher Markus, Stephen McFeely
Cast: Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson, Ed Harris, Rob Corddry, Anthony Mackie, Bar Paly, Tony Shalhoub, Rebel Wilson
Paramount Pictures
Rated R | 130 Minutes
Release Date: April 26th, 2013

Unfortunately, Michael Bay‘s latest film, Pain & Gain, doesn’t star Optimus Prime or John Turturro – but don’t let that discourage you from seeing it – let “Directed by Michael Bay” do that.

The film is based on a series of Miami New Times articles surrounding the brutal kidnapping, extortion, torture, and murder of several victims by the “Sun Gym Gang,” a group of simple-minded bodybuilders turned incompetent criminals.

Mark Wahlberg stars as Daniel Lugo, a bodybuilder who works at the Sun Gym along with his friend Adrian Doorbal (Anthony Mackie). Sick of living the life of a personal trainer, Lugo concocts a plan to kidnap Victor Kershaw (Tony Shalhoub), a filthy-rich businessman, and extort money from him using any means necessary.

With the help of ex-con Paul Doyle (Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson), the Sun Gym Gang successfully gets Kershaw to sign over his riches. But when Kershaw survives an attempted murder by the gang, he hires private investigator Ed Du Bois (Ed Harris) to catch the criminals after the Miami Police Department dismisses Kershaw’s implausible story.

Dwayne Johnson In Fast and Furious 6

Fast and Furious 6 races into theaters on May 24th, but it’s confirmed sequel, Fast and Furious 7, may lose yet another vital piece of the Fast and Furious franchise. After Justin Lin confirmed that he would not be able to direct the seventh installment – due to scheduling constraints – James Wan quickly became one of the frontrunners to helm the film. Now there is word that Dwayne Johnson may not be able to reprise his role because of scheduling conflicts of his own.

Speaking to Collider, Johnson said that his shooting schedule with Brett Ratner‘s Hercules film and the projected shooting date for Fast and Furious 7 clashes with each other in a way that will make him unable to reprise his role.

GI Joe: Retaliation PosterG.I. Joe: Retaliation
Directed by Jon M. Chu
Screenplay by Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick
Starring: Dwayne Johnson, Channing Tatum, Ray Park, Bruce Willis
Paramount Pictures
Rated PG-13 | 110 Minutes
Release Date: March 28, 2013

Directed by Jon M. Chu (Step Up 3D), G.I. Joe: Retaliation is the sequel to Stephen Sommers’ instantly forgettable 2009 film, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

At the conclusion of that film, Zartan (Arnold Vosloo), having had his physical appearance altered by nanomites, infiltrates the White House and assumes the identity of the President of the United States of America (Jonathan Pryce).

Chu’s sequel begins with Zartan in control of the United States government. The master of make-up and disguise frames the G.I. Joes as traitors and launches an all-out attack on the Joes, wiping out their ranks (including Channing Tatum‘s Sgt. Duke) in one fell swoop.

Meanwhile, Storm Shadow (Lee Byung-hun) and Firefly (Ray Stevenson) infiltrate a top-secret subterranean prison to free Cobra Commander. Previously portrayed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, the supreme leader of COBRA is played by Australian actor Luke Bracey this time around and voiced by Robert Baker.

Cobra Commander’s plan is simple: eliminate the world’s stockpile of nuclear weapons so COBRA can rule the world unopposed by using Zeus, a sub-orbital weapon of mass destruction that’s twice as powerful as a nuclear bomb.
