Will Smith May Lose Iconic Role to Dwayne Johnson

The name Dwayne Johnson is self-explanatory. The way the WWE superstar transitioned into one of the top-tier Hollywood actors is just phenomenal, as it is hard to establish and secure a position in an industry crowded with superstars and excellent talent.

Johnson, who has been part of many blockbuster movies, is also rumored to be replacing Will Smith in Disney’s Aladdin Sequel (per Giant Freakin Robot). Will Smith was phenomenal as Genie. However, the Oscar incident may cause him to lose his role.

Following the incident on Oscar night where he slapped Chris Rock, several Smith-related projects have been postponed or canceled.

The Rock appeared in several Disney films (like Jungle Cruise Moana, and Race to Witch Mountain), and once again he might be working with them. Johnson’s career as an actor has been thriving since he has consistently delivered exceptional performances. He is also set to be featured in his first comic verse film, Black Adam, and if the news of The Genie is true, it is a testament to Johnson’s superstardom from him.

Dwayne Johnson debuting in DC’s Universe

WWE superstar turned actor Dwayne Johnson has delivered some of the best action movies during his acting career. In addition, The People’s Champ is set to debut in his first comic verse movie.

Arguably one of his most anticipated movies ever, Black Adam’s release has been delayed due to the pandemic. However, DC finally revealed they will release the movie in October.

In the DC universe, Black Adam is one of the most powerful villains. Johnson certainly has one of the strongest people in the entertainment industry. Given the expectation from DC fans and The Rock fans, all eyes will be on The Great One once the film hits theaters.
