Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson took blockbuster rollouts to another level with his hilariously hands-on approach to promoting buzzy superhero epic ‘Black Adam’ that zaps its way into theaters this weekend.

“It’s always a cliché to say that someone was born to play a role, but in this case, it’s true,” said Director Jaume Collet-Serra about ‘The Rock’ in an interview with EW. “The movie happened because of him. He’s the energy and the push that got this movie made.”

Fans gathered to see the larger-than-life star at packed ‘Black Adam‘ promo events that peaked in Mexico where he held a fan’s baby in a super adorable moment that went viral.

If this doesn’t make you want to vote for the potential Presidential candidate, nothing will.
