While the idea of the self-referencing, cigar-toting character of Duke Nukem appearing on the big-screen may not immediately lend itself to cinema-gold, some people in Hollywood believe it will.<\/p>\n
Well, that’s the word on the street according to The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>, who claim a Duke Nukem<\/em> movie is being cooked up by Paramount with wrester-turned-actor John Cena in mind to star.<\/p>\n Transformers<\/em>‘ Michael Bay is said to be in talks to produce the film, although no writer or director is on board at this point in time.<\/p>\n There is plausibility to this story, as Cena is currently working alongside Bay on the Transformers<\/em> spin-off film, Bumblebee<\/em>, which is scheduled for release later this year.<\/p>\n As for Duke Nukem, the character hasn’t made a starring video game appearance in quite some time, with 2011’s abysmal Duke Nukem Forever<\/em> being somewhat of a figurative nail the franchise’s coffin. After falling into obscurity, it would be an interesting leap of faith for Hollywood to back a Duke Nukem<\/em> film.<\/p>\n Either way, we’re interested to see whether this evolves into something or runs out of gum before it gets going.<\/p>\n Groovy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":196,"featured_media":102197,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_enabled":true,"_sma_x_custom_text":"","_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[1608,25635,10317,279],"class_list":["post-123065","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment","tag-duke-nukem","tag-john-cena","tag-michael-bay","tag-movie"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123065","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/196"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=123065"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123065\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/102197"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=123065"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=123065"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=123065"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
