Johnson?s popularity could not be any higher. So, it is no surprise that franchises that he has already left his mark on, want to continue that relationship. It was recently reported that a third G.I. Joe film was on hold due to Johnson?s busy schedule. There have also been announcements regarding sequels to Johnson starring movies, San Andreas and Journey 2: The Mysterious Island. Now it seems that there have been discussions regarding a sequel to one of Johnson?s earlier roles ? The Rundown. That movie co-starred Sean William Scott (American Pie), but director Peter Berg says if he can get this actor to star alongside Johnson, he?ll get working on the sequel right away. Peter Berg recently spoke with Collider at the Toronto International Film Festival. In response to a query regarding a possible The Rundown 2, the director had this to say:
?We?ve been talking about it. You know, I wanted to do it with Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson. If I could get Jonah Hill, I?d do it tomorrow. If I could get Dwayne and Jonah Hill, I?d do it tomorrow.?
When asked if it was even possible that we could see a sequel, Berg responded:
?Anything?s possible. We want to do it, it?s just hard to get everybody, you know. It?s on our minds. We actually wrote a script. But I want Jonah Hill, so reach out to Jonah. Pressure Jonah to do it. If Jonah Hill would do it, I?m in.?
