Throughout his career Dwayne Johnson has taken on a variety of roles, but none that fit him so perfectly as that of his latest film The Smashing Machine where he takes on the role of real-life MMA champion Mark Kerr. The film reteams him with his Jungle Cruise co-star Emily Blunt along with Ryan Bader, Bas Rutten, and Oleksandr Usyk from Uncut Gems co-director Bennie Safdie at the helm.

 

The Smashing Machine follows the true events surrounding Mark Kerr's life and rise through the MMA world which was unfortunately derailed by his opioid addiction.

 

While you will have to wait until October 3rd to see the film in theaters, you can check out the first trailer and poster here now from A24.
