More money means more sequels means more Jules Verne? According to THR, New Line is currently planning a follow-up for "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island," a film that has already grossed more than $250 million at the global box office.
Although director Brad Peyton has signed on to -- the presumably titled -- "Journey: 3D" (no puns shall be lost here!) stars Vanessa Hudgens, Josh Hutcherson and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson have yet do so.
However, at this point, The Rock might as well be a sure thing, right? After all, the man has been discussing eight (eight!) potential films, all of which could happen between now and 2014 -- and that's not including his upcoming appearance at this summer's Wrestlemania.
Ahead, a look at Dwayne's potential future slate of movies.
"Snitch": The Rock stars alongside Susan Sarandon as a suburban father whose teenage son is sentenced to 30 years in jail for drugs.
"Pain and Gain": This low budget Michael Bay movie (no, really), has The Rock starring as a bodybuilder caught up in an extortion and kidnapping scheme. Based on a true story, it's set to hit theaters in 2013.
"Fast Six and Seven": The Rock! Vin Diesel! Uh ... Paul Walker! All three are set to return for the next chapter in the "Fast" franchise, which will be split into two parts. "Fast Six" currently has a May 24, 2013 release date.
"Hercules": Johnson will play the mythological Greek hero in Brett Ratner's upcoming film, which is based on the 2008 graphic novel "Hercules: The Thracian Wars."
"Ciudad": Also based on a graphic novel, this film finds the Rock starring as a black market mercenary hired by a drug lord to rescue his daughter.
"Empire State": The Rock is negotiating to star alongside Liam Hemsworth in this film about a 1982 armored car company robbery.
"Journey 3": Plot and cast are unknown. But, Rockie has to be coming back for this one. It's not like he's busy or anything.
