NBC’s newest sitcom, Young Rock, focuses on different chapters of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s life. From growing up in a strong and resilient family, to being surrounded by the wild characters of his professional wrestling family, to playing football at the University of Miami, the show explores the many life experiences that have helped shape Dwayne into the man he is today.

Bradley Constant (Dwayne Johnson at 15 years old)

Bradley Constant plays 15-year-old Dwayne Johnson in the series. Alabama-born Constant began pursuing acting at 12 and convinced his mom to move him to New York City where he would study and begin to gain experience in the industry. The tough environment and fast-paced productivity of the city prepared him for an even bigger move to Los Angeles, where he is now based. Constant previously appeared in the 2018 film Following Phil and has had roles in several shorts before landing the part in Young Rock. Constant is a die-hard sports fan who also enjoys gaming, bass fishing and golfing.
