'RAMPAGE' BEGINS FILMING IN ATLANTA: THE GAME ADAPTION STARS DWAYNE JOHNSON!


Producer Hiram Garcia (Baywatch) has revealed on Twitter that Rampage has started filming in Atlanta. He posted the photo featuring Malin Akerman, who plays the villain, and Jake Lacy this morning.

Dwayne Johnson and Naomie Harris star in the Rampage movie, an adaptation of the classic Midway arcade game. The cast also includes Joe Manganiello, Marley Shelton, PJ Byrne, Jack Quaid, Matt Gerald, Breanne Hill, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

This will mark the third collaboration between Johnson, producer Beau Flynn, director Brad Peyton and New Line, having worked on Journey 2: The Mysterious Island and San Andreas together as well. The latter film earned over $473 million at the global box offices, making it the most successful original blockbuster of summer 2015.

Carlton Cuse (San Andreas) and his Colony co-creator Ryan Condal rewrote the script by Non-Stop screenwriter Ryan Engle, which will involve Johnson going toe-to-toe with the game’s three original monster's.

Released in 1986, the original Rampage put players in control of one of three monsters: A giant ape named George; a giant lizard name Lizzy; or a giant werewolf named Ralph. The game saw the monsters running amok across the United States, fighting the military, and destroying key landmarks and everything thing else in there way. Several sequels were developed for the title as well, adding even more types of monsters to the playable roster and extending their path of destruction into the cosmos and even back in time.
New Line will release the Rampage movie to theaters on April 20, 2018.
