‘Young Rock’ Season 3 Gets November UK Premiere Date On Sky Comedy
‘Young Rock‘ is making a (relatively) speedy return to the UK, as Sky Comedy announces Season 3 will premiere this November on the broadcaster just days after the USA.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson bookends this larger-than-life family comedy based on outrageous stories of his youth. The coming-of-age journey highlights the unforgettable moments and incredible relationships that took Dwayne from ordinary kid to extraordinary superstar – revealing he’s more like us than we know.
The third season of ‘Young Rock’ follows Johnson as he navigates his meteoric rise from unknown wrestler to Hollywood superstar. Together, Dwayne and his unorthodox family face locker-room politics, new rivalries and the perils of burgeoning fame as he finds his voice in the WWE as The Rock. Told through unbelievable stories from his own life, the show follows Dwayne’s electrifying journey to the top and the colourful characters that keep him grounded – even as he sets his sights on ever-bigger arenas.
The show follows Dwayne’s life from age 10 to his early 20s, with different actors taking on the task of being Dwayne at various stages. Adrian Groulx(‘The Adventures of Napkin Man!’) plays the youngest Dwayne Johnson (AKA Dewey); Bradley Constant (‘Following Phil’) plays mid-teen Dwayne Johnson; And Uli Latukefu (‘Harrow’, ‘Marco Polo’) plays Dwayne Johnson, aged 18-20. In addition to the various “Rocks”, Stacey Leilua plays Ata Johnson, Dwayne’s mother; Joseph Lee Anderson (‘Harriet’, ‘S.W.A.T.’) plays Rocky Johnson, Dwayne’s father; And Ana Tuisila plays Lia Maivia, Ata’s mother and Dwayne’s grandmother.
Nahnatchka Khan, Jeff Chiang, Dwayne Johnson, Dany Garcia, Jennifer Carreras, Hiram Garcia, Brian Gewirtz and Jeffrey Walker serve as executive producers. ‘Young Rock’ is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, Seven Bucks Productions and Fierce Baby Productions.
‘Young Rock‘ Season 3 premieres Friday, 11th November 2022 at 7.30pm on Sky Comedy and NOW.
