Dwayne Johnson Wants to be Luke Cage

Responding to a question on Twitter, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson stated that he wants to play Luke Cage.  His exact words were "I'd crush it." Johnson is currently filming G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation portraying the Joe code name Roadblock. A couple of months ago, Isaiah Mustafa lobbied for the role of the Marvel superhero. He even went so far as to do a video.

Luke Cage was sent to prison for a crime he did not commit. In exchange for parole, he underwent an experimental procedure, that gave him invulnerably and super strength. He became a superhuman private investigator.  He is currently leading one of the groups of  Avengers.


So what do you think? Does the Rock have what it takes? Should there even be a Luke Cage movie? I think there should be a Heroes for Hire movie teaming him with Iron Fist, but that's me.
