You know that when it all ends, when it all comes crashing down—the Apocalypse, Armageddon, the end of the world, the fin del mundo—The Rock will be there, swinging from a piece of broken infrastructure, scooping up women and children in his muscled arms, delivering them from certain doom. After that’s done, he’ll shake his head at man’s wanton recklessness and vanquish any remaining threats. Yeah...
In his newest adventure epic, Skyscraper, Johnson plays a former FBI agent and wounded amputee who must rescue his family from the tallest building in the world, which also happens to be set ablaze. We like his chances.
MAN OF THE CENTURY
From the first time he raised a taunting eyebrow from the squared circle of the WWE, Johnson has captivated a growing global audience of fans who can’t get enough of his physicality, wit, and outsize charisma. Producer, actor, wrestler, best-selling author, philanthropist—Johnson fills so many roles, you have to wonder if there’s more than one of him.
Despite his enormous success in the entertainment realm, Johnson never strays far from his athletic roots. He’s no green-screen concoction when it comes to strength and athleticism. Johnson looks the part because he works at it. A former college football player at Miami, he still trains like an elite athlete. He lifts heavy. Stays lean year-round. Doesn’t skip leg day. A true Muscle & Fitness guy. In fact, he was named Man of the Century by this magazine in 2015.
