Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A new image for The Smashing Machine reveals a nearly-unrecognizable Dwayne Johnson in the role. In the upcoming A24 film, Johnson plays former UFC fighter Mark Kerr, throughout his life and wrestling career. The biopic is directed by Benny Safdie, who is best known for directing films with his brother Josh Safdie, including Uncut Gems and Good Time.
The Rock appears to be in peak shape for the role, sporting gigantic, toned muscles. In the shot, it looks like Mark Kerr is being approached by his coaches. Johnson sports a head of dark hair, and his skin is glowing with what is likely sweat. Though the image is clearly Johnson, he is almost hard to recognize in this shot given the extremity of this transformation.
This image from The Smashing Machine comes after a recent training post from Johnson, showing his preparation for the role. In the video, Johnson was seen throwing punches and practicing pinning people down in the wrestling ring. Though the actor got his start in entertainment through wrestling, Johnson still claimed that The Smashing Machine was one of his hardest challenges yet. He expressed excitement towards audiences getting to see the journey he will go on.
