Dwayne Johnson Hangs From A Building In New Skyscraper Poster
Dwayne Johnson is taking a big risk to save his family in the newest poster for his upcoming film Skyscraper. The movie will feature the Rampage and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle actor as a war veteran and former FBI Hostage Rescue Team leader who is tasked with assessing security for skyscrapers.
While on assignment in China, Johnson's character finds that the tallest, safest building in the world has been set ablaze – and people think he did it. To make matters even worse, his family is trapped inside the building above the fire line. A wanted man, Johnson's character must go on the run while he hunts down those responsible and clears his name.
Johnson had an ominous message to share about the film alongside the new motion poster, which he posted on Twitter. "Nice to feel everyone's excitement building for this one," he wrote. "Inspired by films The Fugitive, Die Hard [and] Towering Inferno. I can't guarantee I'll save my wife and kid's lives, but I can guarantee I'll do everything I can for the rest of mine."
Neve Campbell, Pablo Schreiber, Noah Taylor, Chin Han, Byron Mann, Roland Moller, and Hannah Quinlivan are also set to star in Skyscraper, which is written and directed by Central Intelligence's Rawson Marshall Thurber. Johnson will produce alongside Thurber and Beau Flynn (Requiem for a Dream). Dany Garcia (Baywatch) and Hiram Garcia (Furious 7) will executive produce, while Wendy Jacobson (San Andreas) co-produces.
Skyscraper hits theaters on July 13.
