Dwayne Johnson in talks to play lead character in Michael Bay movie

Reported by Ernest Aguilar
Dwayne Johnson is in talks to portray the lead character in the movie 'Pain and Gain,' a movie with a $20 million budget produced by Michael Bay.

Bay - the director of several action movies such as the Transformers franchise, The Rock, Pearl Harbor, Bad Boys and others - has been working on the project for ten years.

The movie is based on a Miami New Times article from 1999 and will follow a pair of Florida bodybuilders who get caught up in an extortion ring and a kidnapping scheme that goes terribly wrong.

Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely - from the Captian America movie - wrote the original script. Paramount Pictures will be the studio supporting the movie.
