Director Michael Baby stated tells
E! Online that The Rock was up for the lead role in his next Transformers
movie, which ended up going to Rock’s Pain & Gain co-star Mark Wahlberg.
Bay wouldn’t reveal who the first choice for the movie was, but did say that it
came down to “availability.”
The Rock and Wahlberg discussed some
of the controversy over Pain & Gain. The movie is based on a true story
about a murder case, and several of the victims are upset that the killings are
being used for a comedy. The Rock admitted that “it was a crazy time” in Miami
when the actual murders took place, but didn’t say much more about it. Wahlberg
said they they did try to protect the victim’s identities and that he was
sensitive to the victims and their families.
