The famously toned body of actor and former wrestler Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was on display in Madrid on Wednesday.
.
A photocall for the 50-year-old star’s upcoming DC Comics movie, Black Adam, was held in Spain.
The Rock joyfully gave several of his devoted fans at the occasion hugs after flashing his tattooed arms and protruding biceps in a tight green ribbed top.

The Rock accessorized the ensemble with chic leather shoes and blue pants.
The Jumanji actress added a choker, a black watch, and some dark aviator sunglasses as accessories.
The Rock, who is renowned for roles in movies such as The Scorpion King and Fast & Furious, seemed upbeat at the occasion.
He gave hugs and posed for pictures with several of the admirers during the photocall.
Just a few weeks ago, the film’s action-packed trailer debuted with Johnson’s main character saying, “My son sacrificed his life to save me,” over a lifeless body floating in the water.
Adam is made to watch as his son is hacked to pieces, tormented by the image of his dead son.

He may be seen flying across the city with a lightning bolt shooting out of his palm as he uses his superhuman abilities.
Holding his deceased kid, he exclaims, “These powers are not a gift, but a curse, born out of rage.”
In a another picture, armed soldiers surround him while he is dressed entirely in black and begin to shoot, but to no effect.
After saying, “Your magic is weak,” in a different language after taking out a soldier with a bullet between his thumb and forefinger, he eliminates the soldiers one by one.
Reviews: In the initial round of reviews, the $200 million anti-hero movie Black Adam has been called “overstuffed,” “predictable,” and “anti-entertaining.”
Teaser: Johnson’s main character declares, “My son sacrificed his life to save me,” as the action-packed trailer for the movie, which was recently released a few weeks ago, opens with a dead body floating in the water.
In the initial round of reviews, the $200 million anti-hero movie Black Adam has been called “overstuffed,” “predictable,” and “anti-entertaining.”
The Rock, however, was commended for his performance by Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian, who wrote, “Johnson’s massive bulk, planet-sized head, and sly gift for deadpan humour all make him a great superhero.”
The Rock, who was first touted for the part back in 2007, has made the movie his passion project. Many have praised his perseverance in getting the movie off the ground after it spent years in development hell.
In the eagerly awaited movie, which is scheduled for wide release on October 21, Dwayne returns to his director from Jungle Cruise, Jaume Collet-Serra.
In addition, Pierce Brosnan, Quintessa Q. Swindell, Sarah, and Noah Centineo star in the humorous action hero movie.
The U.S. and U.K. will release Black Adam on October 21.
But The Rock has received positive reviews for his role; one reviewer called him a “great superhero” because of his “massive bulk, planet-sized head, and sly gift for deadpan humour.”
