Dwayne Johnson producing bodybuilding drama Muscle Beach

July 21, 2016 by Gary Collinson

It looks like the recently announced Pump from Arnold Schwarzenegger is set to have some competition when it comes to the period bodybuilding drama stakes, as Deadline is reporting that Dwayne Johnson is producing the scripted drama series Muscle Beach for USA Network.

The logline for Muscle Beach reads: “A colorful tribe of lost souls struggles to reinvent themselves by bench-pressing their way to a bigger, better American dream, no matter what the cost. As the series explores the body-obsessed fitness movement that took the nation by storm during the supersized Reagan ’80s, the excess of the era and the many temptations of Los Angeles will expose the dark side of chasing dreams.”

“Dwayne Johnson, Dany Garcia and Seven Bucks Productions are the only people on the planet to collaborate with on this groundbreaking and never-before-seen show,” Flynn said. “Venice Beach in the 80s is iconic and like no era or place that existed before or after.”
