The Rock impresses by appearing as the fighter Mark Kerr in a new A24 film

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson surprises fans by appearing as the fighter, Mark Kerr, in the 2025 biographical drama ‘The Smashing Machine’.

+ Actor Alfonso Ribeiro claims that his role as Carlton in “Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air” was reason enough to “end his career”

In a photo released by the studio A24, the actor is seen as the two-time UFC heavyweight champion, surrounded by his team in the ring.

Johnson’s impressive transformation has sparked many comments, with some fans barely recognizing him. The film, distributed by A24, marks Benny Safdie’s return to directing and also features actress Emily Blunt as Kerr’s girlfriend, Dawn Staples.

The film adaptation of Kerr, known for his tumultuous life in MMA, is highly anticipated. The project, which began development in 2019, gained renewed momentum after the pandemic, with The Rock showing strong commitment to the role.

Filming for ‘The Smashing Machine‘ is already underway, with the production slated for release in theaters next year.
