DWAYNE JOHNSON OR JUST THE ROCK?

DWAYNE JOHNSON OR JUST THE ROCK?

How did a former wrestler become the most bankable actor in Hollywood?

If you had typed "Dwayne Johnson" into Google two decades ago, your search results would have been associated with several but essentially uniform titles. Another title shot for The Rock in WWE, or another solid fight he's dealt to any fool who dared to step into the ring with him.

Several generations grew up with the image of the Rock in wrestling. His character perfectly combines the traits of a bad but valiant boy who knows how to dispense justice and make his dreams come true. However, like any ambitious and driven person, the Rock wants more. He throws away his nickname, changes his profession, but even in his new role as an actor, he remains the same handsome man with extremely large biceps.

Today, the Rock is known far more by his birth name, Dwayne Johnson. He has more than 30 titles in his biography. It is curious that he took his first steps in the acting profession while still working for the World Wrestling Organization. His debut was in "The Mummy Returns" in 2001. Over the years, he managed to shoot quite a few successful productions, including: "GI Joe: Strike Back", "Fast & Furious 5: Rio Strike", "Fast & Furious 6", "Fast & Furious 7", "Fast & Furious 8" ", "Fast and Furious: Hobbs and Shaw", "Jumanji" and many others.

Over the years, Dwayne Johnson has tried to indulge in both of his passions, but the fights in the ring and those on the set are not easy to combine. Gradually and with advancing age, the Rock devoted himself entirely to the acting profession. In addition to a remarkable number of films for a short time, Johnson can also boast of authority. From his position as a former wrestler and current actor, The Rock has championed a number of causes. Among them, the denial of the use of real weapons during action scenes. A topic that, after a series of tragic incidents, has become extremely topical. However, will Dwayne Johnson surpass the Rock's fame? Will a few more generations describe themselves as "growing up with Dwayne Johnson"? Only time will tell.
