Monsters attacking buildings, and only Dwayne Johnson can stop them? Get ready for the Rampage movie...
NewsAh, Rampage. The classic video game where you played one of a trio of monsters, with your primary aim being to tear down big buildings. If you got to eat a few humans, or punch the occasional car, then even better.
The game was followed by a bunch of sequels, and back in 2011, it was revealed that a possible Rampage movie was being planned. That, though, came to nothing. But now? Rampage is very much back on the movie agenda.
New Line Cinema is pressing ahead with the project, and it's recruited Dwayne Johnson to star. The plan is to shoot the movie once Johnson is done working on Fast & Furious 8. That suggests that Rampage should be heading to cinemas for 2018, but try not to quote us on that.
It sounds a less contentious project than Johnson's recently announced Big Trouble In Little China remake, and as we hear more on Rampage - such as details on who's going to write and direct - we'll let you know.
Right then: a movie based on The Muncher next? Anyone else out there remember that one?
