Sylvester Stallone Plans To Make A Movie About Jack Johnson. Who Should Play Johnson?

[RomanReigns]

Apollo Crews from WWE.

I'mma go with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. The Rock needs a good boxing movie on his film resume any damn way. How he ain't played a boxer yet is beyond me.

dude Jack Johnson was very Dark Skin. The rock is 3 shades from having white skin. wtf man

Yeah that's a major problem if your trying to make a realistic movie.

I love the rock, but he is a comedic actor, and an Action Star.

I like him too.

Tarver would be perfect. Stallone already knows him/worked with him.

Except it's going to take a really good actor to carry it and that ain't Tarver.

If Achilles can be black, Johnson can be white too.

achilles isn't a real person hahaha. I hope you were joking

The Rock is massive. He is as thick as two normal people with a 55 inch chest and 10 inch arms and he must weigh about 250 pounds. He is a good actor but he looks nothing like Johnson or any boxer except maybe Briggs.Johnson weighed 192 pounds when he beat Burns for the world title. I would rather they teach a boxer to act who looks like Johnson and is his size. Somebody like ex cruiserweight champ Cunningham only younger.Johnson was about 6 foot 1 inches or 6 foot 2 inches tall and weighed in the 190 to 200 pound range in his prime.He was lean and muscular. I like realism in my boxing movies and a real boxer playing Johnson makes it more real.

Sorry about the typo. I meant the Rock has 19 inch arms, not 10 inch arms.
