On Dwayne Johnson’s birthday, celebrate The Rock mania on STARZPLAY!

Dwayne Johnson fondly known as ‘The Rock’ has come a long way from his WWE wrestling days to now becoming a bona fide movie star! The intense voice, the machoism, the charisma, the chiselled six-pack abs, and above all his Samaritan nature has catapulted him to overnight fame and glory! Armed with a dedicated fanbase, filmmakers count on The Rock’s star status to take their movie to manifold heights, raking in the box office numbers as it climbs the ladder of success!

And now adding to his list of whammies is a recent survey that pegs him as the new President of America! According to the survey, 46% of 30,000 people surveyed would give the former wrestling superstar-turned-Hollywood heavyweight their vote if he runs for president.

Is the political arena really ready to smell what The Rock is cooking?

As he turns a year older today, here’s a bunch of action-packed and emotional Dwayne Johnson movies & shows on STARZPLAY that’ll get your heart rate going up and down 😛

• The Game Plan: Macho Dwayne Johnson is seen as a megalomaniac footballer turned doting father in this endearing flick. Unaware that he has an eight-year-old daughter, quarterback Joe Kingman transforms from an egotistical bachelor into a loving father when the child suddenly enters his life.

• Race to Witch Mountain: Jack, a taxi driver/ ex-con on a path to redemption has no intention to go back to the crime life. But you can’t always get what you want, can you? Besides dealing with a past vengeance, he finds himself in a cat and mouse chase helping two aliens who appear to look like human children and claim they are trying to save Earth and themselves from Siphon, a dangerous killer from outer space!

• Pain & Gain: Here we see The Rock in his truest avatar! Based on the true story of Daniel Lugo (Mark Wahlberg) a Miami bodybuilder who wants to live the American dream.
