Deadline.com announced that Dwayne Johnson has signed to
star in the upcoming Breakthrough movie from studio A24.
The movie plot according to Deadline says that it’s “set in
turn-of-the-millennium Southern California where the story
follows an alienated young man who comes under the influence
of a motivational guru, whose intoxicating charm masks his
morally questionable methods of manipulation and his own
concealed darkness.”
It is based off a screenplay by Zeke Goodman. No director
has been attached to the project yet and no other co-stars
were announced either.
Johnson and A24 have already done business together with The
Smashing Machine, which comes out in theaters nationwide in
October.
