Paramount Pictures may have found a real American hero in Dwayne Johnson. Deadline reported today that the actor is in talks in to appear in John Chu’s untitled G.I. Joe sequel. Following the story, Johnson himself tweeted a confirmation of sorts, complete with a teaser video constructed out of behind-the-scenes footage from Fast Five.

“We’ve read your comments,” Johnson wrote, “We know what you want. ‘..and knowing is half the battle.’ It’s on!”
Deadline suggests that Johnson would be playing Roadblock, whose character file from the action figure line you can check out below the video (courtesy of YoJoe.com and the collection of Jeff Bohn).
