Universal Announces New The Rock Action Film, Skyscraper


The film opens in theaters on July 13, 2018.

Universal Pictures has announced Skyscraper, a new action movie starring Dwayne Johnson.

Written and directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber (Central Intelligence, We’re the Millers), Skyscraper follows Johnson's Will Ford, a former FBI Hostage Rescue Team leader and U.S. war veteran who now assesses security for skyscrapers.

During an assignment in China, Will suddenly finds himself framed for setting the world's tallest, safest building ablaze. Now a wanted man on the run, not only does Will have to clear his name and find those responsible, but must also save his wife and children, who are trapped inside the building.

The film, which is being described as a 3D action-thriller, hits theaters on July 13, 2018 and is produced by Johnson, Thurber, and Beau Flynn (San Andreas, Baywatch). Dany Garcia (Baywatch, Ballers) and Hiram Garcia (San Andreas, Central Intelligence) are executive producing.

Johnson also revealed the plans for Skyscraper on his Instragram, saying his character "is inspired by the thousands of disabled U.S. veterans and war heroes I've had the honor of shaking hands with over the years. This character is also an homage to the every day man and woman who, despite all odds, will dig deep and do everything possible to protect and save their family."

Dwayne Johnson's next two upcoming films are The Fate of the Furious, which opens in a couple of weeks on April 14, and Baywatch, which is slated for May 26.
