The Rock’s business doesn’t end up with starring film as he has got a new fitness television reality program presently entitled “The Titan Games” (“Program”) coming out, and it’s open to everyone. Thus, it would be a great idea to start practicing your pushups and pull-ups right now.
As you can see Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is bringing a fitness competition to NBC, and it’s currently accepting applications.
The official site of the competition says the next: “NBC and Dwayne Johnson’s nationwide search has begun. If you’re motivated, athletic, and willing to push yourself beyond your limits, you could have the opportunity of a lifetime! Inspired by Johnson’s desire to motivate everyone to reach their potential for greatness, “The Titan Games” welcomes men and women who are strong enough to believe in themselves and confident enough to test their own abilities by taking on physical challenges of epic proportions.
“The Titan Games” will test not only competitor’s physical strength but also their mental and emotional endurance. In the Titan games, the determination will be rewarded, and a new breed of heroes will emerge.”
The Rock’s idea was immediately encouraged by the worldwide known companies. “The Titan Games” are produced by Universal Television Alternative Studio (“World of Dance”), A. Smith & Co. Productions (“American Ninja Warrior”) and Seven Bucks Productions (“Rock the Troops”).
This show will offer everyday people the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to compete in epic head-to-head challenges designed to test mind, body, and heart.
There aren’t any details on what these challenges will consist of, but the website promises they’ll be “physical challenges of epic proportions.” We certainly wouldn’t expect anything less from The Rock, whose new tattoo will be seen in one of his upcoming movies.
The most frequently asked question about the show is what kind of chance does a regular guy/gal have of getting on the show? According to the site, every applicant has to do is submit a three-minute video describing themselves and showing off their fitness.
Then, of course, there’s a small “fitness test” to complete on camera. It has three parts:
- a core test – to hold a plank for as long as possible
- an endurance test – to jump rope for two minutes
- a strength test – which is a descending ladder of pull-ups and pushups, starting with five of each, then four of each, all the way down to one rep of each.
The application deadline is April 14, 2018.
To conclude – to be considered as a potential competitor, you must:
- complete the casting application in its entirety
- meet the eligibility requirements (including but not limited to being 18 years of age or older as of June 1, 2018, and being available during the production periods)
- submit a clear digital photo of yourself and a two-to-three minute video with your application.
The last question is how precisely The Rock is finding time to host a new reality show. As everybody of us is as baffled as the rest of you. Maybe that’s the machinations of his secret stuntman.
