Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson reveals trailer for NBC’s ‘Young Rock’

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has revealed the trailer for NBC’s sitcom based on his life.

“Ladies and gents, here’s your first look at @nbcyoungrock,” Johnson wrote. “I really wish my dad was around to see this one. Maaaaan he would’ve been proud. And yes, I was clearly kicking puberty’s ass at 15yrs old and becoming a tequila tycoon by the time I was 10. I can’t wait to make you and your families laugh a little and share some life lessons I’ve learned along the way.”

The trailer for “Young Rock” is available to watch below:

It was announced yesterday that “Young Rock” will premiere on NBC at 8 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, February 16. Here’s the description for the show: “‘Young Rock’ focuses on different chapters of Dwayne Johnson’s life. From growing up in a strong and resilient family, to being surrounded by the wild characters of his professional wrestling family, to playing football at the University of Miami, the show will explore the crazy rollercoaster that has shaped Dwayne into the man he is today and the larger-than-life characters he’s met along the way.”

NBC has ordered 11 episodes of “Young Rock.” Each episode will be 30 minutes long. Johnson will appear in each episode and is also an executive producer for the series.
