Dwayne Johnson Snitch. Dwayne Johnson is in negotiations to star in Snitch action thriller film. It is an action thriller that New Line has been developing for years. Ric Roman Waugh (Felon) will direct and rewrite the script by Justin Haythe. The movie centers on a suburban dad who goes undercover to convict a drug dealer in order to reduce his teenage son’s 30-year prison sentence. That plot first sounded silly to me, but it turns out Snitch is based on the true story of devoted father James Settembrino, as documented in the Frontline segment “Snitch.”

I’m not entirely taken in by Settembrino’s side of the story. However, it could be a great character for Mr. Johnson, especially with the right poetic license (10 years turns into 30 years, the suburban dad is built like a professional wrestler). In the meantime he’ll continue to alternate between auctioneers (Fast Five, April 29) and family films (Journey 2: The Center of the Earth, September 23).
This long-in-development action/thriller is from Exclusive Media Group and David Fanning producing. In addition, Gordon Gray is producing. Production is set to start in June.
