Real Reason Soulslike Fans Want Dwayne Johnson in the Dark Souls Movie

Unfortunately, for now, there is no Dark Souls movie on the horizon, something that would have retold the classic Hidetaka Miyazaki punishing experience through another medium of expression. Moreover, while there might not be a movie in the works, the better part is that nothing is stopping the fans from making their own fan casts if a Dark Souls adaptation had to be made.

Perhaps, at the top of this fancast list would be Dwayne The Rock Johnson as Oscar, Knight of Astora, a choice that, at first glance, feels like a meme, but is surprisingly a well-chosen role for the actor.

To those who don’t know the game well, Oscar might seem like a minor character. He’s the knight who gives the player their Estus Flask, one of the most important items in the game that helps the player heal up on health points. The best part? The character does not really hold much significance after the game’s starting moments.

This, well, according to fans at least, makes Oscar’s character the best role to be played by Dwayne The Rock Johnson. Don’t believe us? Check out the following

Once again, why is The Rock more than a perfect fit for this role? Well, seeing his performance in past movies, starting with one of his earliest roles in the Doom movie, fans are more than sure how much value he really adds to the production of a video game’s live adaptation.

We are not getting a Dark Souls movie, but one on Elden Ring instead

Elden Ring Movie is currently in the works | FromSoftware

I am sorry if this post brought up any unresolved issues you might have with understanding the fact that FromSoftware is completely done with the Dark Souls trilogy for now. Perhaps, the alleged news about an Elden Ring movie being in the works might cheer up your mood.

There is not much information on what’s going to happen in it just yet, or who will be cast. But we are sure The Rock would make a great fit once again, perhaps as the Soldier of Godrick this time around, often considered to be the most powerful NPC in The Lands Between. Someone that even Malenia and Radahn would be afraid of.

In Dark Souls, the player eventually becomes what Oscar couldn’t, the one undead who was able to escape his fate. Casting someone as universally beloved and heroic as The Rock in a role where he fails to fulfill his destiny? It would be as great as the actor finally breaking his contract, where he makes sure “he can’t lose.”
