2025’s film lineup represents a significant prospect for Dwayne Johnson’s acting journey. Given the increased intensity of A24’s “The Smashing Machine,” which promises to elevate Johnson’s blockbuster status, fans are eagerly anticipating his sports-centered historical drama. However, it’s also worth noting that Johnson’s upcoming project “Breakthrough,” marking his second collaboration with the renowned indie studio, is not something to be dismissed lightly.
The WWE vet is teasing some literally unhinged behavior. Sharing more news surrounding the project on Instagram, Johnson’s “supporting role” in this “psychological thriller” centered on malfeasance in the world of inspirational gurus has inspired this captivating tease for what’s ahead:
As an enthusiast, I’ve been craving for a challenge of this depth and complexity. This tale plunges us into the intricate web of motivational gurus’ culture, a journey that seeks to unearth the purpose hidden within each individual. It’s a character I can’t wait to dissect, to delve deeper, to peel back layer upon layer, maybe even tear apart.
As a movie enthusiast, I must admit, the sheer dedication of the Fast Saga’s leading man in honing his craft is not lost on me. It may seem commonplace to some, but the passion he exudes is palpable and infectious!
Reminds me of Dwayne Johnson’s recent comments about his new project with Martin Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Emily Blunt – an as-yet-unnamed crime drama. His heartfelt gratitude and eagerness for Breakthrough could pave the way to some truly gritty territories.
It’s heartening to note that when he delves into unusual and grim subject matter, the outcomes are simply extraordinary. Many might find his work in this unnamed crime thriller comparable to one of Dwayne Johnson’s top performances, such as in Michael Bay’s 2013 action comedy-drama Pain & Gain.
Nevertheless, the inspirational mentor vibe from Breakthrough stirs expectations that Richard Kelly’s darkly humorous and metaphysically intriguing style in Southland Tales might be incorporated. Yet, these comparisons only partially convey the unique nature of Breakthrough as it ventures into uncharted territory for one of the creators behind Ballers.

In simpler terms, there’s a chance that Mr. Johnson could deliver his most restrained and subtly villainous performance yet – a prospect as exciting as the work we’ve seen from the film The Smashing Machine. Regardless, it’s impressive to discuss such influential figures in relation to a Dwayne Johnson movie; this can only mean an incredible build-up for his upcoming project with Scorsese and team.
Although it’s unlikely that we’ll be sharing images of Johnson’s famous cheat meals right now, related to this upcoming event, we’re excited for the premiere of “The Smashing Machine” in cinemas this October instead. And let me tell you, fans of Dwayne Johnson’s action-packed roles will have plenty more to anticipate: a live-action remake of Moana and the continuation of Fast X, both set to release throughout 2026.
