The only superhero The Rock should be playing is Black Adam.

Aren't both Black Adam and Luke Cage roles beneath an actor of his stature?

Good news, and great for both sides. I want him to get into the next Expendables movie as well, its crazy to me how Austin has been in that franchise but Rock hasn't yet.

Wouldn't Rock be too expensive for Marvel? They're known to be a really cheap studio when it comes to paying their actors...

Awesome to see Rock getting so many roles and succeeding. I thought his career would take a hit after all those Disney movies. Seeing him as this huge star is awesome.

Truth being told, it was Scarlet Johansson playing Black Widow. In tight leather pants. How can anyone not become a fan of Black Widow like that? |

Rock doesnt have this role, he just fancies playing that character.
This is in relation to Fiege saying earlier this week that he is a fan of the Rock and would love to work with him in the future.
Cage is a TV property at best anyway, and no way Rock would lower himself to that.
Rock as Namor could work mind......

Rock would be my second choose for Cage behind Terry Crews.

You make a good point, I was always just mad (and still am) that they put Black Widow in over so many other iconic Avengers. |

Robert Downey Jr was paid $50 million for The Avengers & $75 million for Iron Man 3. Downey received a set sum from The Avengers and another provision in his contract that allowed him to earn $50 million. In comparison to the other Avengers who made $6 million tops.

Also, Marlon Brando, Anthony Hopkins, Jack Nicholson, Gene Hackman, Willem Dafoe, Ian Mackellan, Patrick Stewart, etc are all highly esteemed actors. |

Not to mention, the team needed tits. Sexist as that sounds, it's the truth. |
