DARK UNIVERSE Reportedly Wants The Rock For THE WOLFMAN & Angelina Jolie For BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN
It seems Universal is still high on getting Dwayne Johnson and Angelina Jolie on board to play The Wolfman and the Bride of Frankenstein, respectively, in their Dark Universe. More past the jump...
Though we have heard whispers of this before now, a new report suggests that Universal is still high on getting a couple more massive stars added to their Dark Universe.
According to THR, the studio is eager to sign Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson up as The Wolfman, and Angelina Jolie as The Bride of Frankenstein, which is to be the next film in the burgeoning classic monster franchise. No negotiations have taken place yet (as far as we know, anyway) so we'll have to take theses potential castings as rumor for the time being.
At any rate, not convincing Johnson and Jolie to join the fun may be the least of Universal's worries, as a separate source indicates that Warner Bros. is "mulling over" legal action for the rights to the Dark Universe brand.
More on all of this as we have it, but in the meantime be sure to share your thoughts in the usual place.
