According to reports, Dwayne Johnson (THE ROCK) will be playing Hawaiian legendary conqueror King Kamehameha I in a new movie titled “The King”

The new historical epic film will be based on the life events of Kamehameha I, his fabled life, and will be directed by Academy Award-winning director Robert Zemeckis. The screenwriter is Randall Wallace.

Confirming the reports, Dwayne shared on Instagram: “KA LA HIKI OLA. The dawning of a new day with hope and promise. Humbled & grateful to begin this once in a lifetime journey. KING KAMEHAMEHA – the legendary King was the first to unite the warring Hawaiian islands — fulfilling the prophecy that surrounded his fabled life since birth and creating the powerful & spiritual 50th state as we know it today.

Academy Award-winning director, Robert Zemeckis (FORREST GUMP) will direct. Academy Award-nominated writer, Randall Wallace (Braveheart) will write. From the day I began my Hollywood career (2001), my dream was to bring this legacy to life. In Polynesian culture, we have a belief, that something isn’t done when it’s ready… it’s done when it’s right. The time is right. The one who walks alone.”
