From Octagon Icon to Silver Screen For longtime MMA fans, Mark Kerr is a name that needs no introduction. Known as "The Smashing Machine" for his raw power and relentless ground game, Kerr was a two-time UFC Heavyweight Tournament Champion and a Pride Fighting Championships superstar. The film captures his meteoric rise during the height of no-holds-barred fighting in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Release dates aren't as reliable as they used to be. In an era where script issues, worldwide events, and industry strikes have postponed movies for years, no theatrical release date is secure, and getting your hopes up can lead to disappointment. Usually, though, the start of a movie's production is a sign that things are headed in the right direction, and fans can get (cautiously) optimistic.

'This is more amusing than surprising. I figured Dwayne Johnson would have an intense diet and stuff to maintain his ridiculously shredded physique,' Day said.

The first full trailer for 'The Smashing Machine,' featuring Dwayne Johnson as Mark Kerr, is now available, highlighting the MMA journey of the athlete.
