I'd prefer Johnson to play Nada (They Live)


Not that I'm in any hurry to see any JC movies being remade (but I have a lot of fun now and again fancasting an EFNY remake), but I'd rather have seen Dwayne Johnson in a They Live remake. Again, I'm not desperate to see They Live remade, but if they did, he'd be perfect for the role, also, it kind of follows the tradition of JC casting Roddy Piper, I think in the commentary he mentions casting him as he was a wrestling fan back in the day. Alternatively, there was a good suggestion someone made that rather than remaking BTiLC, that they could do a sequel with Burton now owning a trucking company and Johnson's character being one of the guys working for him.
