Chris Evans has been cast in Dwayne Johnson's new holiday action movie, Red One. Everyone's favorite WWE star turned action hero has been on a blockbuster tear as of late following a brief break due to the pandemic. In 2021, The Rock starred in Disney's action-adventure Jungle Cruise alongside Emily Blunt and followed that up with a star-studded heist movie for Netflix, Red Notice, which also stars Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot.
In June of 2021, Johnson agreed to star in a mystery Christmas movie for Amazon Studios that would reunite him with Hobbs & Shaw screenwriter Chris Morgan and Jumanji director Jake Kasdan. While specific plot details for Red One are under wraps, it is being billed as a globe-trotting action-adventure comedy that imagines a"whole new universe to explore" within the genre.
Evans is best known for his turn as Steve Rogers, a.k.a Captain America, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, though Avengers: Endgame likely marked the end of his time in the ultra-successful film franchise. Post-MCU, Evans has been lining up an array of promising projects, such as the Buzz Lightyear origin story, in which he voices the titular astronaut, and the Russo Brothers' Netflix film The Gray Man, in which he plays the antagonist, CIA operative Lloyd Hansen.
Johnson and Evans both cameoed in Free Guy this past summer, though Red One will be the first time they receive top billing together, an exciting prospect for fans eager to see the two movie stars team up. Although Evans' time in the MCU appears to be over, this holiday film will give him the chance to return to his comfort zone, as Red One's tone has been compared to the Marvel movie Guardians of the Galaxy.
Is someone gonna tell Dwayne Johnson that it's okay to rest? He's making the rest of us look bad.
