When he learns that his naive son will be facing ten years in prison for narcotic trafficking, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson does what any normal father would do in this situation -- become a DEA informant! Okay, not every father.
Check out the trailer for the new crime thriller "Snitch" starring Johnson as a desperate dad who's willing to go undercover as a truck driver for a local drug lord, in order to shave years off his son's impending jail sentence. Apparently, this was "inspired by true events," which is a good enough moniker to attract a pretty decent supporting cast, which includes Susan Sarandon, Barry Pepper, Jon Bernthal, Michael Kenneth Williams, and Benjamin Bratt.
Directed by former stunt-performer Ric Roman Waugh, the movie is slated to crash through theaters on February 22nd.
