"The Rock" Dwayne Johnson says he would like President Barack Obama to play him in a biography movie about Johnson's life. Johnson played the role of Obama's alter-ego, "The Rock Obama," on a Saturday Night Live sketch this past weekend.

"I hear that we sound a like all the time," Johnson told Moviefone in an interview promoting his new movie coming out Friday. "I've gotten to know him and he's a big time athlete and loves athletics, so I'm sure he could bulk up."

The former WWE star Johnson says he talked to Obama prior to the U.S. presidential election in November and he is honored by comparisons between the two of them. He says Obama validated his work as a family movie actor.

"He did tell me that I was one of Michelle Obama's favorite actors," Johnson said. "We also talked about the importance of making family movies - he was telling me that his daughters were big fans of 'The Game Plan.'"
