He made his name in the field of "professional wrestling," in which he was (and continues to be) one of the "sport"'s most recognizable figures. After building a reputation in the ring, he made his first silver screen appearance in "The Scorpion King" in 2002.
Since his breakout role in TSK, Johnson has appeared in over thirty titles, and has rapidly become one of the most widely known actors in Hollywood. Not all of his movies have been particularly great, and some of them have been outright horrible; however, this is not entirely Johnson's fault. He is a decent actor who oftentimes gets placed into either god-awful roles in movies with extremely horrible execution, or he gets placed into a role as the generic tough guy with absolutely no room for character development throughout the film. Were he given a decent role that was well written and well executed, I firmly believe that Johnson could become one of the greatest actors of this generation. Perhaps one of his most well-known roles is that of Luke Hobbes in the Fast and the Furious series. This is a perfect example of a situation where the director took Johnson, shoved him into the role of "generic tough badass cop" and said "good enough."
Outside of his professional career, Johnson is known for one thing: being the manliest man since man was first created. He is the epitome of masculinity and a shining example of what a person can do with their life and body if they have the proper motivation and dedication.

A note: Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is often colloquially referred to as simply "Dwayne Johnson," or "The Rock."
P1: Hey, did you see that new movie? The one with The Rock in it?
P2: Nah, I haven't gotten a chance. Is it any good?
P1: Yeah. The director sort of screwed Dwayne into another generic, superficial role, though.
P1: Dude, why do you have a picture of Dwayne Johnson in your locker?
P2: Because I hope to someday achieve a body like his.
P1: You can't even commit to a relationship with the girl you've been casually dating for three years. I doubt you have the commitment to achieve this.

Get the dwayne the rock johnson mug.A few weeks ago, I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, was accidentally reducing my trailer van into mere atoms with a tree branch. In panic, I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, was blaming the act on my cat because I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, an individual individually pursuing the individual goal of individually assisting individuals in achieving individuality named Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, was wishing to avoid hurting my reputation. Soon, my cat was in jail and being investigated by the CIA. I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, was concerned for my cat and wondering if he (named Michael) would be alright, because, as it turns out, my cat Michael is a rare type of cat that is actually a human. Michael’s last name is Scott. Yes, I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, was owning the man from popular comedy show “The Office”, as the show was deeply tied to my childhood (specifically the part of my childhood where I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, had yet to be born) on a superficial level. I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, was relatively certain that my cat was going to be deported to a third-world Central American country and was being imprisoned there, perhaps being forced to do labor (unpaid). I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, was worried about losing my unpaid laborer to different unpaid labor, and I, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, was panicking and fearful for my cat’s safety.
