Live action Johnny Bravo = the Rock?

The Rock to Star as Johnny Bravo? Source: Variety
Friday, October 31, 2003

Warner Bros. Pictures has hired the writing team of Matthew Berry and Eric Abrams to pen the live-action feature adaptation of Cartoon Network's Johnny Bravo, with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson attached to star.

The film will have Bravo looking for his long-lost father in a coming-of-age action-comedy. It marks the first time WB has teamed with sister company Cartoon Network on a live-action feature.

Berry and Abrams previously wrote spec Undercover Elvis and the New Muppet Show pilot for Team Todd and the Henson Co. at Fox Broadcasting last year.

Merlin and I went to school with the Creator of Johnny Bravo - I even did one of the voices (I do a very good announcer voice) for his senior animation project which was a very raw and unrefined Johnny Bravo (kind of like the Spirit of Christmas level of unrefined). Kind of funny and all in retrospect. I hope Van Partible gets something for this.

Why do they have to ruin a great cartoon series by turning it into a friggin' live-action movie??

Leave Johnny Bravo with his dignity and keep him in an animated form only!

I half agree.... I wish they would release the screen testing that the Rock did first to see if it would be good. Johnny Bravo rocks. and I almost rather watch and animated movie not a live action.

Unless Johnny Bravo's father is Dino Bravo, the old and I think dead wrestler..... hmmmm..
