Dwayne Johnson is – surprisingly enough, since he’s got a busy-enough and very successful film career on the go – headed to TV.
THR says the “Fast & Furious 6” and “Pain & Gain” star has agreed to front an untitled HBO comedy, set amongst the world of retired professional athletes, for his “Pain & Gain” co-star Mark Wahlberg and “Rundown” director Peter Berg, who will produce the half-hour offering.
Stephen Levinson (”Entourage”) will pen the script and executive produce alongside Wahlberg, Johnson, Dany Garcia and Peter Berg, who also helms the pilot.
Johnson will next be seen on the big screen in the abovementioned fast-cars fifthequel “Fast & Furious 6”.
