While there had been a lot of speculations regarding what Dwayne Johnson had in store for following his Black Adam debacle at DC Films, there has been little to no evidence of the Hercules star gearing up for something major such as his prior quest to take over the DCU. Thus, with the recent night of The Academy Awards still being explored in every bit of detail, there have been reports of something that The Rock might be cooking with Emily Blunt.

With the recent behind-the-scenes from the 95th Oscar Awards that were filled with excitement, joy, and fun, there have also been certain backstage events that were posted by The Academy which have shown how many stars interact with each other off-screen. During this, we also got a glimpse at the duo of Johnson and Blunt having a wholesome moment with each other, which might be signaling another rodeo of the two at Disney.

The entire world knows Dwayne Johnson for his tough and bada*s persona mixed with his electrifying attitude to do what he wants to and make it grand, and there are many from the Hollywood industry who are also familiar with his calm and composed nature, especially the people who have worked with him in the past. Amongst them, Emily Blunt seems to be one of the few that really get along well with the Central Intelligence star, so much so that she’s willing to let him rest on his lap.

After facing a humiliating situation with his endeavor to take on the DCU with Black Adam and failing miserably, The Rock has not been actively seeking any new projects that were as prominent as his plans for DC Films. But with the recent interactions with Blunt and an opportunity to start something new and grand all over again, mixed with the fact that the actress loves working with the Baywatch star, it might not be surprising if we find out later that The Rock was cooking something all along.
