The Rock once asked the nation if they could smell what he was cooking, but he did not learn to tinker in a kitchen at night. On Saturday, Dwayne Johnson posted the first teaser trailer for Young Rock, NBC’s autobiographical sitcom based on childhood, adolescence and the entry of the fighter who became an actor in the world of being professionally great, all under the guidance of his late father and also fighter Rocky Johnson, played on the show by Joseph Lee Anderson.
“Ladies and gentlemen, here’s your first look at @nbcyoungrock,” wrote Johnson in the Instagram post. “I really wish my dad was around to see this one. Maaaaan he would be proud. “Adrian Groulx, Bradley Constant and Uli Latukefu play ten-year-old Dwayne Johnson, fifteen-year-old Dwayne Johnson and twenty-year-old Dwayne Johnson, respectively, while the real Dwayne Johnson plays himself as a kind of series narrator.
“I can’t wait to make you and your family laugh a little and share some life lessons I learned along the way,” Jumanji: the next level actor wrote. First lesson, apparently? Be adorable at all ages. Young Rock premieres on NBC on Sunday, February 16.
