It looks like the star of the new Doc Savage movie is going to be Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. The bad news is that the guy behind this project is the jackass that shit all over the recent “Green Hornet” film.
Well, I’ll be superamalgamated.
Sounds like they’re going to portray Doc as Schwarzenegger’s character from TWINS.
The links mentions the G reen Hornet movie, but doesn’t link it to anyone involved in the Doc Savage pic. Which person from the new film is responsible for the Hornet mess?
Nevermind-my mistake. I read through too fast.
Nah, Shane Black didn’t make the Green Hornet. The article is pointing out the Green Hornet for taking a comedic tone with a classic pulp hero. Black seems to be taking the same approach with Savage, which gives the writer pause.

Shane Black is also responsible for the excellent Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, which was also a comedic take on pulp fiction tropes. If Doc Savage turns out to be half as good as that movie was, it’ll be amazing.
Now they’ve got to cast the Fabulous Five(or Six, if you count Pat).
Schwarzenegger’s character was based on Doc Savage, more likely.
