Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is taking on his first superhero role, and he is taking his job as a superhero seriously!

The actor told Fox News Digital about his training regimen for "Black Adam," while also emphasizing the positive influence he believes the diverse cast will have on children. 

"All kids will look at ‘Black Adam’ and the JSA [Justice Society of America] and the cast and the color and the diversity that we have in our cast and crew and go, ‘I can be that,’" Johnson said at the "Black Adam" New York City world premiere.

Johnson, the star of the newest DC superhero film, was joined on the red carpet by his "Black Adam" co-stars including Pierce Brosnan, Noah Centineo, and Aldis Hodge. 

Johnson told Fox News Digital and other reporters he has been inspired by Black Adam since he was a child and could especially relate to the fictional comic character due to his "brown skin."

"So that's why I've been pushing for this movie for so long, for so many years," Johnson said with a smile. "Black Adam influenced me as a kid and made me think, ‘Oh, I can do that! I can be that!’"

Johnson continued on to say he hopes that not only children of color but "all kids" will look at the new DC superhero- as well as the diverse cast -as inspiration.
