Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson Is Getting A TV Show About His Childhood

Oh yes, it seems that no matter where you go you can't escape the Rock.

He's in every single movie, he's on HBO and now, there's going to be a TV show about his childhood.

Then again, you would know that you can't escape The Rock if you had seen The Rundown.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has really snuck his way into our hearts the last couple of years, hasn't he?

It all started back in... well, he did movies before this, but the biggest boost to his career was when he starred in Fast Five.

Ever since, he's been impossible to escape.

He's been in movies, HBO series, and now, he'll be in a TV show.

HBO

Well, not exactly. The show is going to be about his childhood.

The show, called Young Rock, is going to come on NBC around 2021. It won't star the Rock (obviously)...

But The Rock is going to be executive producing.

And the pilot was written by Nahnatchka Khan and Jeff Chiang (who will also executive produce) from Fresh Off The Boat.

And the Rock had quite the childhood as well.

He was quite the troublemaker!

He was arrested for fighting, theft, and check fraud– all before he turned 17. Then there's the lead up to professional football and wrestling.

There are so many things that could happen... we can't wait!
