Can you smell what The Rock is cooking?! It might be a presidential campaign! Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson made a trip to the Ellen Show to promote his new movie, Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle, and was asked how serious he is about running for President.

"Would you run?" Ellen asked after her guest Kevin Hart openly expressed his support for his co-star.
"I am seriously considering it, yes."
The entire audience erupted into applause, and news outlets everywhere are excitedly discussing the possibility, which may be a glimpse of America's attitude towards having The Rock as the next U.S. President.
The Rock was far less committal to the idea a year ago. In 2016, he told British GQ: “I’ll be honest, I haven’t ruled politics out. I’m not being coy when I say that, but at the moment I am not sure. I can’t deny that the thought of being governor, the thought of being president, is alluring. And beyond that, it would be an opportunity to make a real impact on people’s lives on a global scale. But there are a lot of other things I want to do first.”
It sounds like he's accomplished quite a bit in the last year and is ready to take that presidential step forward!
So of course this begs the question...would you vote for him? Why or why not? Or are you not convinced and don't want to make up your mind just yet?
Watch the video below to see his reaction to Ellen's tough question and let us know what you think about this exciting news!
