During the promotion of his most recent movie Hercules, Rock had hinted that he was in talks with DC to play the role of an iconic DC character in an untitled film project. He further teased that the character would be someone as strong as Hercules. Last week, he had posted the following tweet, revealing the mystery once and for all.

If this film wraps up earlier than the much-awaited Batman vs. Superman film, then we might also be in for a treat in a possible future Justice League movie with Rock in it.
Now, do you smell what the Rock is cookin'?
