Quote:

Dwayne Johnson will star as the title character in The Tooth Fairy, a 20th Century Fox fantasy comedy that's coming together for an August start, Variety reported. Michael Lembeck (The Santa Clause) will direct.

Johnson will play an ordinary man who's brought in to try to save the tooth fairy kingdom.

The Tooth Fairy was written by the team of Lowell Ganz and Babaloo Mandel and the team of Joshua Sternin and Jeffrey Ventimilia.

Johnson is currently starring in Disney's Witch Mountain, and he will be seen starring this summer opposite Steve Carell in the Warner Brothers comedy Get Smart.
Wait what??? There's enough Tooth Fairies that they have their own Kingdom?! :o

I don't even need to make a joke. Your title covered it for me.

Only Arnie can do this stuff and still come out Arnie. It's killed every other action lead's career

Just look at Vin Diesel and the Pasifier.

Ugh...Why Hollywood? Why?

LOL! I think someone may be making a return to the ring in a few years.

You're doubting The Rock's ability to play a fairy? The Rock says all those other jabroni fairies are going to get the smackdown laid on their roody poo, candy you know what's...

Mr. Snackpants 02-27-2008 06:06 PM

This just jumped Indiana Jones as my most anticipated film in the next year. This will be amazing.

BubblyShell22 02-28-2008 08:29 AM

This actually sounds like it might be funny. I think The Rock's doing these films so that his daughter can see his work. Most of his other films, she can't see, so he wants to do family oriented stuff. I thought he did very well in The Game Plan.

I'm just flabberghasted that Disney wasn't the studio to come up with this. And throw a random funny animal in it as well.

Couldn't agree more. But then again, Arnold is Arnold. Even as a holder of political power, he's Arnold.

I can understand an actor trying to expand his genre but this seems a bit too goofy. Maybe being typecast isn't such a bad thing. :ohwell:

I will be willing to bet that the movie won't be half as good as one Futurama episode.

I guess you don't realize that without HollyWOOD, none of your favorite movies or even shows would exist, including TMNT. So shut up. Bad movies are nothing new. They've been around since the beginning.

Now now, that may have been a generalization, but some of the plots of certain movies make you wonder what some of those writers are smoking.

It's funny you guys should mention the governator...this role WAS originally his. It's a fairly old script....one that was supposed to come out before he decided to become governor of that west cost state. I remember seeing this somewhere a looooong time ago and being completely blown away that he would do something like that.

They never made it though. I thought it was dead. Oh well.
