Though Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (recent 35th bday) has dabbled in video game adaptations (Doom) and big-budget fantasy flicks (The Scorpion King), surprisingly, he has yet to try on a superhero costume. But that might change, as the actor has expressed interest in playing Captain Marvel for the upcoming big-screen adaptation of Shazam!
He is planned to be in the movie adaptation of the 1960s sitcom, Get Smart.
Island power rules!

Biopic of Young K.M. in the Works
Haitian filmaker Raoul Peck (worked on Lumumba) is looking to chronicle the philosopher's young life -- from 1830-1848, from age 12 to 30. This span will allow the auteur to cover notable pieces of his youth, including growing up surrounded by intellectuals, his time as a Young Hegelian, his love for Jenny von Westphalen (his aristocratic wife), meeting F.E. and the publishing of the C. Manifesto.
