10 Characters Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson could play in The Marvel Universe

1. Luke Cage

Cage

Johnson has expressed interest in playing Luke Cage numerous times in the past, but now that the character is heading to Netflix instead of the big screen, is he below 2013’s highest grossing movie star? That’s debatable, especially with the sort of critical acclaim that shows like House of Cards and Orange is the New Black have got since debuting on the online streaming service.

It would give the actor a new area of media to dominate (after his success in both the worlds of WWE and the movies), as well as lending Marvel and Netflix the sort of star power which would guarantee that this series – which is set to be joined by ones for Daredevil, Iron Fist and Jessica Jones – would be a huge success. The Rock is clearly passionate about playing Cage, so why not let him?
