Dwayne
Johnson Desperate to Play Bond Bad Guy
3/9/08
Professional wrestler-turned-action star Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is
desperate to land a certain macho role - a James Bond villain.
The 35-year-old muscle man decided to part ways with World Wrestling
Entertainment to pursue a career in Hollywood, winning tough-guy parts in
The Mummy Returns and The Rundown.
And although the Scorpion King star is now distancing himself from such
roles, he admits he would jump at the chance to play a bad guy in the super spy
franchise.
He says, "I would love to be a Bond baddie. I am a big fan of the
films."
