Dwayne Johnson shows interest in joining ‘Deadpool’

Dwayne Johnson has shown his interest in starring in a future Deadpool film after the comic’s creator Bob Liefeld suggested Johnson to take on the role of Garrison Kane following the release of Hobbs & Shaw, the Fast & Furious spin-off film.

Liefeld posted on Twitter last Sunday a picture of Johnson together with an action figure of X-Force hero Garrison Kane, along with his plea for Dwayne to take on the role for the next Deadpool film to build on his chemistry with the Merc with a Mouth actor Ryan Reynolds.

Dearest @therock based on reports of outstanding chemistry between you and a familiar friend, I believe the next logical step is for you to join the Marvel Universe as Garrison Kane in a future Deadpool installment. You’re a natural and Kane is already celebrated by millions of comics fans who have thrilled to his adventures since I first introduced him in X-Force #2! Your pal, Rob!

Dearest Rob, thank you amigo. It’s true, in @HobbsAndShaw, I have insanely outstanding chemistry with our familiar friend. Since you created the characters, how does one Garrison Kane get alone with one
