¡DWAYNE JOHNSON CONFIRMA QUE SERÁ DOC SAVAGE EN EL CINE!

Y hace muy bien, por que me da a mi que lo de Black Adam se va a retrasar...

¡Nos congratulamos doblemente de esta noticia, que une dos de los intereses de este blog: el Pulp y sus héroes con el Cine!

Comic book fans around the world know that the cool thing about "Doc" Savage is that he's the inspiration for Superman. First name Clark, called "Man of Bronze", retreats to his "Fortress of Solitude" in the Arctic etc etc.

Doc was physically and mentally trained from birth by his father and a team of scientists to become the perfect human specimen with a genius level intellect. 



His heightened senses are beyond comprehension. He can even identify a women's perfume from half a mile away. He is literally the master of everything.

It's OFFICIAL: For all comic book fans you already know the world's first superhero (pre-dating Superman) is the "Man of Bronze" himself Clark "Doc" Savage. Want to thank my bud director/writer Shane Black and his writing team Anthony Bagarozzi and Chuck Mondry for flying in from LA and sitting with me and our @sevenbucksprod's producer @hhgarcia41 on this Memorial Day weekend to chop up creative and break story on this very cool project.


But here's the #1 reason I'm excited to become Doc Savage.. HE'S A F*CKING HILARIOUS WEIRDO! 

Confidently, yet innocently he has zero social graces whatsoever due to his upbringing so every interaction he has with someone is direct, odd, often uncomfortable and amazingly hilarious.


After speaking for hours w/ Shane Black I can see why the creator of Superman took only the best parts of Doc Savage and leaving the "weirdo" part behind. 


But to us, it's that "weirdo" part that makes Clark "Doc" Savage dope!
Can't wait to sink my teeth into this one of a kind character.

No veo yo a este actor encarnando a Clark Savage Jr de manera adecuada ni convincente. No olvidemos que Doc Savage, además de un cachas, era científico de un nivel altísimo, capaz de operar el cerebro de los malos que caían en su poder -de ahí lo de Doc-, investigador, inventor, explorador y músico.
No veo de ninguna forma cómo Dwayne Johnson -al cual respeto y no me disgusta ver en otro tipo de roles más físicos- me va a convencer a mí ni a nadie de que su personaje es realmente así. Lástima de Ejecutor que se ha perdido Marvel.
Huele a miscasting a años luz.
Aunque, claro está, pudiera ser que me tuviera que comer mis palabras.
