Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson might be one of the most recognizable Hollywood superstars of the modern age, but has somehow avoided contact with the industry-defining success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. No stranger to leading tentpole franchises, the former pro wrestler is known for his iconic roles in blockbusters like the Fast and Furious movies, Disney's Moana, and action comedies like Jumanji: The Next Level.
While Brett Goldstein already brought Hercules to life in the MCU, there's nothing to say that Marvel couldn't re-cast the character, as they have done in the past even with characters as notable as The Hulk. 8 Hyperion Marvel's answer to Superman Close Another character similar to Black Adam, Hyperion might be Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's best, most realistic shot at entering the MCU. Hyperion is another Marvel interpretation of the Superman powerset, alongside Sentry, who will appear in Thunderbolts* as the primary antagonist. Originally an Eternal, Hyperion was adopted by a human family similar to Clark Kent, who raised him to be a hero.
6 Silver Surfer The Herald of Galactus Close With Galactus confirmed to appear in the upcoming The Fantastic Four, a Marvel Cinematic Universe interpretation of the Silver Surfer can't be far behind.

On top of that, Juggernaut's powers might be the best fit for Johnson's "no losing" clause for his roles -- Once the Juggernaut starts going, he becomes a truly unstoppable force.
Once again, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson can put his vocal talents to use on the obviously CGI character.
