Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has been picked to play Jack Burton in the remake of the 1986 cult classic Big Trouble In Little China.
The role of truck driver Jack Burton was originally played by Kurt Russel, who drove a 1985 Freightliner FLC-120, called the Pork-Chop Express.
According to A.V. Club, Johnson will also produce the movie.
Some fans of the original were upset at the decision to remake the movie, but Johnson assured them that he loved the original and vowed to do it justice. “I come to this project with nothing but love and respect for the original,” he said.
