The Rock & Chris Evans Is Working Together In The New Announced Blockbuster

Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans will star in Amazon's Christmas action comedy Red One. The narrative of the film, described by Deadline as a "globe-trotting, four-quadrant adventure comedy," is unclear. Amazon's Red One Christmas actioner will be directed by Jake Kasdan (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Jumanji: The Next Level), with filming slated to begin this year.


Hiram Garcia, the president of Seven Bucks Productions, came up with the creative concept for Red One. Chris Morgan, whose past work includes numerous chapters of the Fast & Furious franchise, including Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs and Shaw, The Fate of the Furious, Furious 7, Fast & Furious 6, and Fast Five, is adapting the narrative for the cinema.


With Johnson and Evans on board, Amazon's Red One Christmas picture has already recruited two heavy hitters, leaving us to ponder who else may join the cast. Red One, set for a holiday release in 2023, could be about anything from Evans and Johnson teaming together to rescue Christmas to the two stars fighting it out for control of the North Pole. Johnson could easily portray a buff Santa Claus, while Evans could play a vengeful Jack Frost. I'm probably far off base here, but Amazon's Red One Christmas film could be about anything because there's so little to rely on in terms of narrative.


Evans recently finished Lightyear for Disney and The Gray Man for the Russo Brothers, while Johnson has projects like DC League of Super-Pets and Black Adam on the horizon. Kasdan is now working on Red One, which will be released on Amazon. He'll also be directing Bad Teacher 2, a sequel to Cameron Diaz's 2011 comedy.


Kasdan is producing Amazon's Red One holiday action picture with Melvin Mar and co-producer Sky Salem Robinson through his production business The Detective Agency, with Morgan for Chris Morgan Productions and Johnson, Hiram Garcia, and Dany Garcia for Seven Bucks Productions.
