The Rock: I Would Consider A Presidential Run If The People Wanted It

On “Young Rock,” The Rock appears as himself in the middle of his campaign as President of the United States in 2032.

While “Young Rock” depicts the life of The Rock growing up in the world of wrestling, does it predict the future as well?

Speaking to USA Today, The Rock was asked about potentially running for President.

“I would consider a presidential run in the future if that’s what the people wanted,” he said. “Truly I mean that, and I’m not flippant in any way with my answer. That would be up to the people…So I would wait, and I would listen. I would have my finger on the pulse, my ear to the ground.”

The Rock famously spoke out against leadership during Donald Trump‘s term as President and endorsed Joe Biden during the 2020 Presidential Election.

Speaking about the premiere episode, The Rock said, “The fun thing about ‘Young Rock’ is everything that people see in this first episode and throughout the season, everything happened. Now, what we do is, maybe it happened in a different year, maybe it happened in a different city.”

The pilot episode of “Young Rock” premiered on Tuesday, February 16 on NBC.
