The Rock stars in Martin Scorsese's new drama

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will star in a new untitled drama directed by Martin Scorsese. The film features a cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio and Emily Blunt, and is based on the true story of a Hawaiian crime boss. Set in 1960s and 70s Hawaii, the film explores organized crime and cultural survival. Johnson has personal ties to Hawaii and has long wanted to create a film set in his ancestral homeland. The screenplay is being written by Nick Bilton, and the project is moving forward quickly. Johnson and Blunt previously worked together in Disney's Jungle Cruise and are set to reunite in another film later this year.
