The Rock confirms some info on ‘Jonny Quest’ Movie

Moviehole.net had a chance to sit down with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson while at a press junket for his new film, ‘Race to Witch Mountain’.   During the discussions, Johnson unveiled some interesting news about the in-development ‘Jonny Quest’ film to be directed by ‘Witch Mountain’ director, Andy Fickman.

Johnson confirmed that he would be playing Race Bannon, the bodyguard/pilot/all-around badass who protects Jonny.

‘’ I love the script, I love working with Andy…’’, Johnson told Moviehole. “I don’t know if you’ve read the latest [draft] but it’s awesome and it’s badass and I haven’t read, this is what I told everyone over at Warner Bros., and I love the studio too by the way, you know, I had my experience with them with Get Smart and they were great, I hadn’t read an action script like that in a LONG time. And that action was unbelievable. That will happen.’’

Johnson also said the rumors about Zac Efron playing the title role might be on the money.   Not exactly a solid piece of information, but a little more than just an unfounded rumor.

What do you think?   Is The Rock a good choice for the blonde-haired Bannon?   Would Efron ruin the character of Jonny Quest?   Was there ever a more badass animated character than Race “By God” Bannon?   Let us know by commenting below!
