Following his WWE career, Dwayne Johnson often appeared in franchises and has been working on franchise starters for the past few years. However, failing to perform well in film sequels, the 51-year-old appears to be taking his last chance with his 2023 upcoming franchise starter, Red One.
In the June 9th episode of The Hot Mic, Jeff Sneider, and John Rocha discuss Dwayne Johnson’s upcoming movie and his repeated franchise flops. Following his failed 2021 movie Red Notice, the actor simply appears to be working on franchise starters, while keeping his fans waiting for their sequels.
Dwayne Johnson Tactically Avoids Failed Franchise Starters
Although Dwayne Johnson’s entertainment career has been marked with incredible blockbusters, his recent few films are struggling to find success at the box office. Failing to create an impression with DC’s Black Adam, and his franchise starter Red Notice, Johnson appears to trying and rectifying it with his upcoming Red One.
Irrespective of his upcoming 2023 movie Red One appearing as his last chance, Jeff Sneider and John Rocha feel, the 51-year-old is tactically avoiding failure by simply concentrating on the franchise starters. During the recent episode of The Hot Mic, Sneider and Rocha mutually discussed Dwayne Johnson’s entertainment career and his notable failure.
During the discussion, Jeff Sneider mentioned how his source opened up about Johnson’s Red One being a big-budget franchise, which alleges to compete with the Fast & Furious franchise. Further, subtly throwing light on the way Johnson has been avoiding the sequels of his franchise starters, Sneider mentioned, “My source basically said, you know like ‘where are the sequels to all these franchise starters?’”
Dwayne Johnson Is Busy With His Upcoming Red One
Starting off well with his prequels, Dwayne Johnson has been working hard for his franchises, however, the actor is predominantly facing failure despite his honest attempts. Previously failing to make Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot starring Red Notice perform well, Johnson and his film distributors are in constant worry regarding his upcoming franchise starter Red One.
Having a popular WWE career, no doubt Johnson capitalized on his natural charm and magnetic personality. However, his onscreen performances are beginning to wane. Thus, the 51-year-old appears with his upcoming project Red One co-starring Chris Evans. With months of reports and rumors related to the movie, the action-thriller blockbuster is said to take over mass expectation.
Gathering A-listers on set, the high-flying holiday movie finds itself being produced under Amazon Studios, which further sets the movie to feature on Prime Video. Still walking under the shadow of his epic flop Black Adam, Johnson intends to rectify his past debacle. Thus keeping the anticipation of his fans high, and his optimism higher, Dwayne Johnson prepares Red One to premiere in December 2023.
