With his new film "Hercules" about to be released on 7/25, The Rock is already in early discussions to star in "The Janson Directive", a new potential franchise.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film features, "a former consular ops agent who, after leaving covert operations due to the high number of sanctioned serial killings, goes into business as private security consultant. Teamed with a sharpshooter, Janson only takes assignments that he believes will lead to helping those in need."

The Rock recently completed filming on the HBO series "Ballin'" which will debut later in the year.
