A Movie Based On The Rock’s Wrestling Career?

Why not use a pic of The Oak and The Corporate Champ?  Anyway, FOX Television has announced that it has made a (pilot) commitment for an untitled comedy series based on the real life experiences of WWE head writer Brian Gewirtz and actor Dwayne Johnson during his time in the WWF.

The 30 minute  comedy offers a behind-the-scenes look at a fictional professional wrestling outfit and chronicles the one-of-a-kind odd couple relationship that develops between a charismatic young Rock-like character and a painfully awkward comedy writer new to the world of wrestling and all its alpha males.

This one comes courtesy of Seven Bucks Productions and Gary Sanchez Productions in association with 20th Century Fox Television. Johnson, Gewirtz, Dany Garcia, Brian Gewirtz, Will Ferrell, Adam McKay and Kevin Messick will serve as executive producers.

Andrew Gurland will write the pilot script and serve as an executive producer.  Also, check out the heights of Arnold and The Rock.  Looks about right to me, Arnold at about 6’1 (slightly past prime) and The Rock about 6’2/3.
