Global megastar Dwayne Johnson headlines the action adventure “ Rampage ,” directed by Brad Peyton. Primatologist Davis Okoye ( Johnson ), a man who keeps people at a distance, shares an unshakable bond with George, the extraordinarily intelligent, silverback gorilla who has been in his care since birth.

One of his daughters perished in a rafting accident, which led to a painful divorce that his soon-to-be ex-wife (Carla Gugino) was forced to accept.
