Casting is underway for subsidiary roles on Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s “Daddy’s Girl,” which is now set to begin shooting in Boston in June. This is the movie that has The Rock as a super-competitive, extremely self-involved star NFL quarterback whose life gets re-organized when the 7-year-old daughter he never knew he had is placed in his charge — and turns out to have both his athletic gifts and his attitude. It’s a big year for the big guy in terms of stories that put him with kids. He also has the real-life tale “The Gridiron Gang,” due in September, about a group of juvenile delinquents in a detention center who learn self-esteem through football under the tutelage of their counselor — you-know-who.Xzbit plays his right-hand man.
