Hey folks, Harry here with news that I pray is UNTRUE! Across dozens of WWF and Wrestling sites online today, the rumor has been spreading like wildfire that THE ROCK has been signed to play THE BEAST in the X-MEN 2.
Now I agree that he has the physicality to play THE BEAST, but does he have the language flair... the tongue to weave those clever witticisms of his. Does the Rock have the panache to play THE BEAST? Personally, I'd rather see someone like Phillip Seymour Hoffman handle the role... Sure the physicality isn't supreme... but the performance ability and character work is. Of course, that's just my opinion.
