In a follow up to a story we published last week, the likelihood of The Rock performing at next year’s WrestleMania just got smaller.
The Rock has signed on to co-star in Central Intelligence, a film with comedian Kevin Hart. Filming is set to kick off next spring, which is the heart of WrestleMania season. In addition to the filming schedule The Rock will also be heavily promoting the upcoming Furious 7 picture, which looks to be a huge blockbuster.
It remains possible that The Rock could perform at the annual WWE extravaganza and promote all of his products simultaneously, but it remains to be seen if Universal Pictures would condone that. During The Rock’s last WrestleMania match in 2013, he sustained an injury in which reduced his promotional schedule for Pain & Gain and also caused him to miss the movie’s premiere.
The two film roles aren’t The Rock’s only upcoming obligations, either. He’ll be starring and serving as an executive producer for the HBO series Ballers, which also kicks off in 2015.
