The 48-year-old actor who described himself as a tireless worker, revealed today that he is set to kick off the production of his new NBC series, “YOUNG ROCK”. A comedy series about his wild and often unbelievable childhood and crazy teen years.
“A pleasure to officially kick off production for our new @NBC series, “YOUNG ROCK”. Before you understand where I’m coming from, you’ve got to understand where I came from. I’ve never done anything like this before. This one’s special and I think you’re going to like it. Life’s unpredictable journey. Let’s shoot.” The Rock wrote on Instagram Friday.
As Dwayne Johnson is set to run for president in 2032, he takes a comedic look back at his extraordinary life through the outrageous stories of his family and youth that shaped him into the man he is today. The Rock explores his childhood years living amid influential wrestling icons while his dad rose to fame in the business, his rebellious teenage years attending high school in Pennsylvania, and his football years teamed up with powerhouse players at the University of Miami. In his telling, Johnson explains that while his experiences have been larger than life, he remains a down-to-earth guy who still relates to the American people.
Dwayne Johnson has also revealed the cast for Young Rock series, starring Adrian Groulx, Stacey Leilua, Ana Tuisila, Bradley Constant, Uli Latukefu and Joseph Lee Anderson.
Bradley Constant will portray Johnson at age 15, and Adrian Groulx will play Johnson at age 10. Marco Polo star Uli Latukefu will play him from the ages of 18 to 20, when he’s recruited to play football at the University of Miami. Stacey Leilua has been cast as Johnson’s mother, Ata Johnson, and his late father will be played by Joseph Lee Anderson.
