Why is The Rock such a popular actor?

He's smart. Rock knows his role and plays it. Because of his looks, he'd have a hard time playing the vulnerable, multi-dimensional characters you see Denzel, Cheadle, Will and Chadwick play.

Honestly think The Rock COULD make better movies but it would start with a physical transformation...and perhaps starring in a supporting role with a really strong actor.
He tried to slim down already but I think when he got on Fast & Furious and they needed that bulky look he never looked back.

Cats really hate the Rock on here I've noticed, shyt weird lol.

I do and am proud to let it be known, this fool is the male Zoe Sardine(yeah I meant to say it like that on account of her bony like figure). He will happily fill the black quota in a movie but doesn’t show any love for his black side. Always propping up Samoan culture and heritage but silent on anything black, I don’t know why black people even fukk with him.

Probably the best example I have ever seen of "staying in your lane." Breh is the master of it.
Probably gonna get a live action movie of The Rock starting as Sonic the Hedgehog at one point :manny:


Minus well throw Jack Black as Dr Eggman and Michael B Jordan as Knuckles

-Male audience from those who watched wrestling back in the day and is happy to see him succeed in Hollywood
-Female audience that's attracted to him
-Charismatic
-Sense of humor
-Seems like a really down to earth, caring, motivational dude based on the stuff he posts on social media. That's easy to relate to.
