Fans filled up the comments section of the post with their reactions to Johnson's latest role.
"Finally, a movie about true grit and heart. The Rock was born for this role," one person wrote.
"Dude this Dwayne Johnson guy looks familiar," someone else said.
"If ya smell what the rock is cooking? I smell Oscars 2026," a third comment read.
"Get that man an Oscar right now," echoed a fourth Instagram user.
Johnson had an open mind when taking on the role and expressed a desire to make movies that "matter."
"Benny wants to create, and continues to push the envelope when it comes to stories that are raw and real, characters that are authentic and at times uncomfortable and arresting,” Johnson told Variety in an interview published in January. "I’m at a point in my career where I want to push myself in ways that I’ve not pushed myself in the past. I’m at a point in my career where I want to make films that matter, that explore a humanity and explore struggle [and] pain."
The trailer for The Smashing Machine will be released on April 29.
