THE WWE star-turned-Hollywood actor is cooking up something big this summer.

The way we see it, running around on a beach all day, soaking up the sunshine, shirt off, and surrounded by Baywatch babes is a day very well spent.

It doesn’t need justification when it comes down to it—it’s pretty much what every man has dreamed of at some point in his life. And Dwayne Johnson is living that lifestyle. Johnson, better known by his ring name The Rock, is often cited as the most successful WWE superstar ever. Vince Russo, the head writer during WWE’s breakout era, stated, “I don’t think there’s ever going to be a star in the history of this business that is bigger than The Rock.” He isn’t wrong.

From college football championships to wrestling greatness and onward to Hollywood, Johnson exudes star power. His 2000 autobiography, The Rock Says, debuted at No. 1 on the New York Times bestseller list, sold 720,000 copies in hardcover alone.

Today you’ll find Johnson on Hollywood sets and at A-list events. His first leading film role was in 2002 in “The Scorpion King,” where he was paid $5.5 million, a world record for an actor’s first starring role. And last year’s “San Andreas” made a quarter of a billion dollars worldwide.

Wherever The Rock goes, success follows. Forbes listed Dwayne Johnson #25 in the Top 100 Most Powerful Celebrities in 2013 and Time named him one of the world’s most influential people in 2016.

And now for his next role, the Ballers star will be playing Mitch Buchannon in the Baywatch movie (2017), alongside Hollywood pretty boy Zac Efron (Matt Brody) and Alexandra Daddario (Summer Quinn). If Johnson’s past success is anything to go by, the movie is going to be a total hit.

Finally, after all this time, we know what that smell is. The Rock is cooking!
