Dwayne Johnson Rumored To Return in Fan-Favorite Role

Dwayne Johnson may be returning to play the Scorpion King, a role that marked his film debut in 2001’s The Mummy Returns. Insider reports suggest that Johnson is in talks to reprise the role in the future, but this has not been confirmed by the actor. A reboot of The Mummy is in the works, but it is unclear if Johnson will return as the Scorpion King for this project or any other. In 2020, Johnson announced plans to reboot The Scorpion King movie with a new script by Jonathan Herman, expressing excitement to bring the character to a new generation. However, there have been no recent updates on the reboot from Johnson, who recently released his new film, The Smashing Machine.
