Gearbox boss wants The Rock to star in Borderlands movie… as Claptrap

From VG247: "The team behind the upcoming Borderlands 3 have revealed that they’ve got their sights set on Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson for the upcoming film adaptation of the franchise.

Speaking to VG247 ahead of the release of the tongue-in-cheek post-apocalyptic role-playing shooter, creative director Paul Sage revealed that he’s “100%” up for the big-screen adaptation."

That's a weird choice. Even kevin hart would have made a better claptrap

Relientk771739d ago

The Rock playing Claptrap just sounds odd and doesn't make much sense to me. He should play Roland or some vault hunter with muscles.

If they for some reason do choose The Rock, here are quotes for him:

"Shut your mouth and know your role Vault Hunter!"

"Do you smell what the Claptrap is cooking?"

DarkOcelet1739d ago

If the Rock starred in a borderlands movie, he should be Brick.

Lord_Sloth1738d ago

Nah. He should just be The Rock in a Borderlands movie.

Elda1739d ago (Edited 1739d ago )

Dumb idea. The Rock is not a midget,dwarf or really short he should be one of the tough big guy vault hunter characters.

SpeedDemon1739d ago

I would think they would just have him voice a cgi Claptrap, but either way his voice wouldn't be a good fit.

Knightofelemia1739d ago (Edited 1739d ago )

The Rock as Claptrap doesn't sound right his voice is too low and it's not annoying yet funny at the same time. Chris Tucker could be a better choice he has a higher voice and he is annoying.

Tom Cruise as Les Grossman as Claptrap

"Borderlands 3: Ultimate Edition" (Switch) Review \\ paulsemel

Though far from the best version, this does a mostly good job of bringing this snarky sci fi shooter to the Switch.

Really like the series but each one seems more of the same to me. Needs a mix up. Tiny Tina was ok at 1st but overall meh.

gold_drake237d ago

you can only make a 1st person looter shooter so much different.

fans dont play it for the ganeplay but more for the story i would assume.

i know i did. and cause i liked the characters

InUrFoxHole236d ago

Idk but they're solid overall

FalcorMononoke237d ago

The first 3 games were great on the Switch so I'm sure this one will be good.

Profchaos237d ago

Hate to say it but this was a bad game I don't see the merit in porting it unlike the first 2
