If you’re starting to think it seems like The Rock has a new movie coming out every month, you wouldn’t be too far off. The fruits of the busiest man in Hollywood’s labor are starting to show. Over the next 7 months, The Rock will be headlining 3 major motion pictures. Starting with ‘Jumanji‘ this December, ‘Rampage’ in April and ‘Skyscraper‘ in July. While Johnson is certainly the biggest star on the planet right now, mainly due to his incredible dedication and work ethic, one has to ask, does this man ever sleep? In ‘Rampage‘ The Rock stars as a Primatologist who has a very special relationship with a silverback Gorilla named George. Once George is exposed to a pathogen that makes him grow uncontrollably, Johnson serves as the worlds best chance of taming the mighty beast. If this plot sounds vaguely familiar, it’s because it is an extrapolation of the classic arcade game ‘Rampage’, that dominated arcades for the better part of two decades.
We’ve attached the official trailer and synopsis for ‘Rampage’ below.
‘Primatologist Davis Okoye (Johnson), a man who keeps people at a distance, shares an unshakable bond with George, the extraordinarily intelligent, silverback gorilla who has been in his care since birth. But a rogue genetic experiment gone awry mutates this gentle ape into a raging creature of enormous size. To make matters worse, it’s soon discovered there are other similarly altered animals. As these newly created alpha predators tear across North America, destroying everything in their path, Okoye teams with a discredited genetic engineer to secure an antidote, fighting his way through an ever-changing battlefield, not only to halt a global catastrophe but to save the fearsome creature that was once his friend. ‘ Via Warner Brothers
