Dwayne Johnson Not In 20,000 After All

PRODUCTION WEEKLY has corrected their report that Dwayne Johnson will be involved with Disney's 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA (via IESB.net).

The publication made the announcement on Twitter.

The synopsis has also been altered to read:

"The story begins with the mystery of an underwater "beast" that has been stalking boats, taking bites out of them, and leaving them to sink to the bottom of the sea. Ned, is reluctantly recruited by an old army buddy to hunt the beast. He's joined by Aronnax, a scientist and Julie. They go out looking for this beast and eventually find it. But the beast is not a beast at all…it's a super tricked out mega submarine called "The Nautilus," captained by Nemo, who takes them captive and brings them back to a secret Volcano City. There they learn that Nemo is searching for a lost underwater civilization that holds libraries of vast knowledge and a weapon with the power to destroy mankind."
