During the late ’90s, my junior high class was completely fascinated by Dwayne “˜The Rock’ Johnson. They questioned teachers and fellow classmates with his infamous question: “Can you smell what The Rock is cooking?”

Ten years and a few movies later, Johnson has made a name for himself outside the wrestling ring. He is just one of the many stars who will appear in Michael Bay‘s new passion project Pain & Gain and in this new image, people will once again be asking themselves: “Can you smell what The Rock is cooking?”

Credit to ScreenCrush for revealing the photo (which you can check out below) of Johnson on the set of Michael Bay’s new movie Pain & Gain. The film follows two muscle-headed body builders who attempt to start their life of crime by kidnapping a local business man, only thing is, things don’t go according to plan.

Glad we are seeing something that doesn’t contain huge explosions from a Bay movie. But that won’t last very long seeing that Bay will follow up Pain & Gain with Transformers 4. Still, the image is a nice change of pace and shows that Pain & Gain won’t be your average crime drama.

Mark Wahlberg, Anthony Mackie, Ed Harris, Rob Corddry, Ken Jeong, Tony Shalhoub, and Bar Paly also have roles in Pain & Gain, which is expected to hit theaters in 2013.
