Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will star in “
Witch Mountain” for Walt Disney Pictures. Andy Fickman is directing, and the studio will begin production in March.
Johnson, who just teamed with Fickman in the Disney family comedy “The Game Plan,” is in negotiations to play a Las Vegas cab driver who picks up a pair of siblings with magical powers. Plot advances the storyline from the original “Escape to
Witch Mountain,” which Disney released in 1975.
