Vin Diesel To Star In Movie Based On Rock’Em Sock’Em Robots
Vin Diesel is set to star in a live-action movie based on Rock’Em Sock’Em Robots – and we swear that’s not a late April Fool’s joke.
The F9 star has signed on for a movie based on the classic Mattel toy – telling the story of “a father and son who form an unlikely bond with an advanced war machine.”
Mattel is working on several movies based on its toy lines – from Barbie to the card game Uno.
