Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds are back with the chase. Two years back, fans saw these iconic superstars pursuing each other on the silver screen. However, this time the story is based on real grounds with real-life experience and they aren’t certainly reluctant partners. But the similarity here is that The Rock is set to take the same path which brought the Canadian star eternal glory.

Reynolds became a heartthrob of the sports industry following his purchase of Wrexham AFC alongside Rob McElhenney. The duo garnered immense fame and honor after their team clinched the National League promotion. Now this world-renowned achievement has started attracting more celebrities to this passionate and wild adventure.

According to the Echo News, the muscle god of Hollywood is looking forward to entering the sports industry with a lower-league English team. The publication claimed that the potential new owners (Simon Jackson and Kristofer Tremains from Kimura Capital and members from Integral Sports Management) reached out to the production company owned by Dwayne Johnson. It seems that they want to make a docu-series about the club under Seven Bucks Productions. The Essex Club is hoping to bring attention to their team so they can win the promotion next season.

We all know that Welcome to Wrexham brought widespread success to the club when the Hollywood pair gave people an insight into this world. So Southend United is following the same strategy by joining hands with another famous face. Not to mention, the Jumanji star has been a wrestler in his early years of life, which would turn out well for the publicity too.

Dwayne Johnson can be an asset to Southend United

Considering the longstanding career of Dwayne Johnson in both sports and acting, he might be the right fit to promote this club. In his athletic years, he has earned many awards and titles.

Whereas, his movies have grossed over $10.5 billion worldwide, making him one of the highest-paid actors. Thus, his involvement in Southend United can work wonders given how the club has been on a decline before current owner Ron Martin put it up for sale. However, this dream would only come true if Ray Winstone, who is rumored to be a part of the potential owners’ group, wins the takeover bid.
