Seven Bucks Productions is currently working on creating a biographical film focused on the life of 2-time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair.
As reported by The Wrap, The Rock, alongside Dany Garcia and Hiram Garcia, is set to produce the project in partnership with Kevin Misher from Misher Films.
It’s worth noting that Misher Films and Seven Bucks Productions previously teamed up for “Fighting With My Family”, a movie based on the story of Saraya, also known as Paige in WWE.
The Rock wrote the following about this upcoming project:
“WOO!
As a wild kid, who grew up in the wild world of professional wrestling, I idolized, ‘The Nature Boy’ Ric Flair. He was one of my heroes. And once I broke into the wrestling business and began to spill my own sweat and blood in arenas across America – my reverence for Ric turned to great respect.
Because I realized just how rare and almost impossible it is to truly disrupt the wrestling business, and truly change the game – and that’s exactly what Ric Flair did.
Ric Flair had a relentless passion to be the greatest of all time, but with achieving that GOAT status – he also sacrificed it all and paid a heavy price.
And lived to tell the story.
I’ve known Ric since I was 8 years old when he and my dad, Rocky ‘Soulman’ Johnson were wrestling together in the NWA (National Wrestling Alliance).
This project is personal for me and we at @sevenbucksprod & #KevinMischer films can’t wait to tell his unbelievable story.
As always, ‘thank you for the house, Ric’

Flair tweeted the following about this:
“Thank You @TheRock For This Incredible Opportunity. Your Friendship Means The World To Me! This Is Truly The Dream Of A Lifetime! WOOOOO!”
The Rock replied:
“You’re welcome brother and our friendship means the world to me as well. Remember, this is all possible not because of anything I’m doing – it’s all possible because of everything YOU accomplished in our business of pro wrestling. Honored to bring your unbelievable life to the big screen. Let’s get to work. WOOO!”
