Throughout all of his outlets, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is a social media darling. Hold on, let’s face it, he’s an EVERYTHING darling. From Instagram to interviews, he’s always bringing that amazing charisma that made his transition from wrestling superstar to Hollywood superstar not that surprising at all.
Well, we are happy to report that he is no way slowing down. Via Collider, Johnson, via his Instagram account, has given us a behind the scenes look at the next entry into the “superhero franchise that’s not REALLY a superhero franchise but let’s face it, it’s a superhero franchise,” Fast and Furious 8.
WARNING: Audio is NSFW
Here’s Dwayne shooting an action sequence as Hobbs (It would be weird if he were shooting it as Dominic Toretto). From the looks of it, he’s catching a grenade, throwing it, and jumping out of the way of the impending explosion. While the lighting is a tad on the dark side, you get the idea. Anything that involves the Rock and explosions? Sign me up.
This next clip is Dwayne just hanging out in between shots, pinned behind some car wreckage and cracking some jokes with the crew. I think the man bleeds charm, not blood.
If this movie is even a quarter as fun as the Rock is making it seem, we’ll all be in for an awesome time.
Fast & Furious 8, also starring Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Charlize Theron, and Tyrese Gibson is directed by F. Gary Gray and will be released on April 14, 2017.
So what do you think? Are you revved up for Fast and Furious 8? Is there really ANYTHING the Rock can’t do? Let me know on Twitter or sound off in the comments below.
