Dwayne Johnson shocked everyone with his return to WWE on Day 1 Raw. He was seen squaring off with the Modern-Day Maharaja, Jinder Mahal. The encounter between the two was quite brief and ended with Mahal being on the receiving end of a People’s Elbow. On top of that, Johnson declared that he was here to stay. While this stint of his might be a longer one, there is a rumor going around.

The rumor suggests that Johnson might have a pretty jam-packed 2024. While he has returned to WWE, he might be in the race to be cast in an upcoming Disney remake.

According to Daniel Richtman, the word around town is that Johnson might be the first choice for Disney to work in a remake of a classic Christmas movie. The movie in question is said to be Jack Frost, a holiday comedy from 1998. While the rumors have not been verified yet, it has garnered some attention online as he already has a holiday movie lined up for release.

If The Brahma Bull gets cast in the movie, this will be his sixth movie with Disney. His latest work with the studios was for the 2021 movie Jungle Cruise. Along with that, his most popular Disney movie to date is 2016’s Moana. The 2016 animated movie was a massive hit and prompted the studios to work on a live-action adaptation of the movie.

The original Jack Frost was directed by Troy Miller. It followed the chronicles of a man whose soul was transferred into a snowman following a car accident. The original movie was met with mostly critical reviews. However, over the years, it has developed into a cult classic.

Over the past decades, Johnson has developed his image as a reliable action hero. All major movies that he has been a part of have some element of action and adventure to them. The major credit goes to the Fast & Furious franchise and the Jumanji series. While fans have loved this side of the 51-year-old star over the years, there are a few forgotten classics of his in which he played a similar role. One such movie is The Game Plan.

The movie was from the starting days of Johnson’s Hollywood career. In the movie, he played the role of Boston’s quarterback, Joe Kingman. The football star receives a surprise when he finds out that he has a six-year-old daughter who he needs to take care of. While it received mediocre ratings initially, it has attained a fan following after years. The movie is very different from Johnson’s recent blockbusters as it relied more on the heart instead of action. If he is cast in the Jack Frost reboot, chances are, fans might get to see the old Dwayne Johnson.
