Dwayne Johnson has set the internet ablaze with his “crazy transformation” for the upcoming movie, The Smashing Machine.
The Rock starred as Mark Kerr, a former UFC fighter. Meanwhile, Emily Blunt played the role of Mark's wife, Dawn Staples.
Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, the Black Adam star shared the first look of the most-awaited movie.
In the viral picture, Dwayne can be seen sitting inside the ring as referee calms him down. Meanwhile, Emily was standing outside the ring as she looked concerned for her husband.
Shortly after the first look was revealed, fans started flooding the comment section with love and appreciation.
A fan commented, “Is that you, Rock? Nice work by the prosthetics and make up team. Give the make up team the award now.”
Another one wrote, “That's some crazy transformation!!! Wow.”
“Day 1, But so many days just to even get here. Looks unbelievable,” a third noted.
The first look was revealed after Dwayne recently got candid about The Smashing Machine during a conversation with Variety.
He shared, “Benny wants to create, and continues to push the envelope when it comes to stories that are raw and real, characters that are authentic and at times uncomfortable and arresting.”
The Moana actor added, “I’m at a point in my career where I want to push myself in ways that I’ve not pushed myself in the past. I’m at a point in my career where I want to make films that matter, that explore a humanity and explore struggle [and] pain.”
The release date of the most-awaited movie has not been confirmed yet.
