The Rock set to play another major DC character in upcoming film

The Rock may be starring in Black Adam, but the star has revealed another upcoming DC Comics role is on the horizon for him.

Fans of DC Comics and the DCEU will all be excited to see Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson portray the titular character in the upcoming Black Adam film – a project that the actor has been attached to for a very long time. Johnson has been one of the biggest film stars since leaving the WWE to pursue an acting career, with comic book fans eager to see what he can bring to the role.

However, while Johnson has expressed his desire to grow the DC Universe in the past, his newest role in another DC Comics property is sure to surprise a lot of fans (and excite all dog lovers).

Who is The Rock playing in DC League of Super-Pets?

According to a report from Deadline, The Rock will be providing his vocal talents for DC League of Super-Pets as Krypto the Super Dog.

Johnson expressed his excitement as he announced the news on social media, confirming that his company Seven Bucks Production will be producing the film. While not much else is known about the film beyond Johnson’s casting, the animated feature is set to be an adventure for families to enjoy.

For now, fans can only speculate which famous DC Super-Pets will appear in the film (Ace the Bat Hound please!) and who will be voicing them. The film is set to be the first feature film starring Superman’s canine best friend and is due for release May 20, 2022, with The Rock’s other DC film Black Adam also due to be released in 2022, hitting theaters July 29 next year.
