Set photos offer a cool first look at Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans teaming up for their upcoming Prime Video holiday action movie Red One.
Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans Team Up on Prime Video’s Prime Video Holiday Action Movie Rode. Johnson just made his highly anticipated debut in the DCU in the big hit Black Adam movie. And Evans is strongly associated with the MCU thanks to his portrayal of Steve Rogers, aka Captain America.
But these two superstars’ associations with rival movie universes are about to be set aside at least temporarily, as Johnson and Evans are about to team up in Rode from Prime Video. Johnson is, of course, familiar with posting work for the major streaming services, starring in the Netflix spy thriller. Red notification (which has no relation to) Rode) alongside fellow superstars Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot. And Evans has also jumped on the Netflix bandwagon before, starring in the 2022 Russo Brothers action movie. the gray man.
But Johnson and Evans are clearly not exclusive to Netflix, as they’re both jumping to Prime Video for their big team-up movie Rode. Details about the film are kept secret, but thanks to The daily email, there are some leaked set photos for fans to peruse, featuring clean-shaven Johnson and scruffy, bearded Evans in costume.

What is the action film Red One by Evans & Johnson about?
The idea of a holiday action movie is of course unique, despite the existence of that holiday action classic That hard. Although plot details on Rode are a secret from now on, the film’s tone has been teased by producer Hiram Garcia, who compared it to Johnson’s Hobbs & Shaw like Protectors of the universe. Garcia also teased the movie”crazy mythological elements” and “world traveler”, while promising the film will play with holiday movies. Anything else Rode going for it is a strong cast, which includes Lucy Liu, Kiernan Shipka, Mary Elizabeth Ellis, JK Simmons and Nick Kroll in addition to Johnson and Evans.
Since Johnson was reportedly paid $50 million for his involvement in… Rode, it’s a good bet that Prime Video will do everything it can to make the movie a big party. Evans’ presence is a wildcard, of course, as the actor has tried to break with his straightforward Captain America image by playing some less likable characters, and may try to do so again in Rode. It will indeed be fascinating to watch the dynamics between Evans and Johnson as they work together in what is supposed to be an action-packed movie with a humorous tone. Rode is currently set for a 2023 holiday season release via Prime Video.
