Dwayne Johnson to Star in ‘Journey to the Center of the Earth’ Sequel
So in 2008 Brendan Fraser stared in ‘Journey to the Center of the Earth’ and now it seems that in the sequel to this adventure fantasy (which will be titled ‘Journey 2: The Mysterious Island) will not have Brendan at all. Instead it seems that Dwayne Johnson will be stepping up to fill the shoes of this lovable actor.
Granted it won’t be hard to fill those shoes, the first ‘Journey’ movie was good… but not great. The only thing that really made that film an okay movie was the fact that Brendan was in it (the kid played by Josh Hutcherson wasn’t bad either).
Brad Peyton is up to direct this sequel and Josh Hutcherson will be reprising his role as Sean Anderson. Just like the first movie, ‘Journey 2′ will also be shot in 3D.
The story goes, Dwayne Johnson’s character is dating Josh Hutcherson’s mom. Hutcherson is forced to bring Johnson to a mystical and monstrous island to find his missing grandfather loosely based off of Jules Verne’s “The Mysterious Island”.
So who do you think will do a better job… Dwayne or Brendan? What did you think of the first movie?
