Maybe You Should Read This...‘Young Rock’ Trailer: Dwayne Johnson Is Running for President in 2032, Apparently
NBC released the full-length trailer for “Young Rock” on Tuesday, giving a glimpse of the pro-wrestler-turned-Hollywood star’s journey from young kid growing up in Hawaii to getting his start in professional athletics. The trailer also reveals the “How I Met Your Mother”-esque framing device for the show, which has Dwayne Johnson playing himself as a presidential candidate in 2032, recalling his early life history.
NBC’s “Young Rock” should maybe be called “Young Rocks” since there are three actors cast as Dwayne Johnson across his formative years. Adrian Groulx plays 10-year-old “Dewey” Johnson, Bradley Constant portrays Dwayne Johnson at 15 and Uli Latukefu heads to the University of Miami as the 18-year-old version of the man who would eventually become WWE Superstar The Rock.
