Dwayne The Rock Johnson has recently stunned the fans during Warner Bros.’ upcoming animated film DC League of Super-Pets special screening in Los Angeles. Fans who attended a special screening got quite the surprise in the form of a Dwayne Johnson appearance. The Black Adam actor dressed up in a dog suit for his character Krypto the Super-Dog, the beloved pet of Superman, played by John Krasinski, in the upcoming movie.
The Rock also met some fans and a few real pets as well at the Los Angeles event ahead of the DC League of Super-Pets release on Friday, July 29. Johnson came out in a full-scale replica costume of his character Krypto the Super-Dog costume, before removing the head and revealing himself. Dwayne introduced the film to the Los Angeles crowd, who had a chance to see the film days before its official release.
Johnson gave his marvellous voice to Krypto the Super-Dog, who shares the same incredible powers as his owner Superman. Together they fight crime in Metropolis, but he’s tested like never before when Superman is kidnapped and Krypto has to save him despite losing his own powers. Krypto forms a team of shelter animals who were given superpowers to help rescue Superman and the rest of the Justice League.
Johnson is led by an all-star voice cast that includes Kevin Hart, Vanessa Bayer, Natasha Lyonne, Diego Luna, Marc Maron, Kate McKinnon, Keanu Reeves, Dascha Polanco, Ben Schwartz, Jemaine Clement, Daveed Diggs, Jameela Jami, Olivia Wilde and Thomas Middleditch. Directed by Jared Stern and Sam Levine, the animated superhero adventure will face the new film Vengeance in theatres plus the re-release of A24’s Everything Everywhere All At Once.
Johnson will return to the DC empire though in live-action form, playing the title character in Black Adam, releasing in theatres on October 21. The wrestler turned actor also has the Amazon Studios action-thriller Red One in pre-production, starring alongside Chris Evans. The actor also has a series of projects in various stages of development, including an adaptation of Doc Savage and a remake of Big Trouble in Little China.
