Dwayne Johnson to Kick Monster Booty in MONSTER HUNTER'S SURVIVAL GUIDE

Sometimes, casting is a no-brainer. Casting Dwayne Johnson, the most manly of movie stars, as an action hero who tames and conquers monsters, beasts and zombies just makes sense. Johnson (Fast Five) will star in the live action fantasy Monster Hunter's Survival Guide based on the comic book series. Producer Simon Kinberg (X-Men: First Class, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) will make the film through his Genre Films.

Monster Hunter Survival Guide is the latest monster project in development. Others include Monster Witness Relocation Program (Jaden Smith was in talks to star), Monster High, Monster in Paris, Monster Squad, Big Man Japan, Tim Burton's Monsterapocolypse and Pixar's sequel to Monsters Inc.
