'This is Quail': 'The Rock' surprises family with puppies

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is always good for a surprise. At a presentation of his new film "DC League of Super-Pets" he not only appears in the costume of his character, Krypto the dog, in the cinema. He also insists on giving a family a very special gift.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson recently celebrated the premiere of his new animated film "DC League of Super-Pets". On Instagram he shared a video with impressions of a special cinema screening of the film. Johnson disguised himself as his character, the dog Krypto, and surprised the audience at a Los Angeles movie theater. The Rock had an extra surprise for a family who were also sitting in the cinema hall.

"The best part was finding a loving home for my little one, Quail, with the Hernandez family," the actor wrote. The video shows Johnson inviting the Hernandez family out of their cinema seats and onto the stage.

"I heard from your mother and father that you always wanted a dog," said the 50-year-old to three children in the family. "I have something special for you guys," he shared, before disappearing off the stage and returning with a tiny puppy in his arms.

"I'd like to say hello to your newest family member. This is Quail," the former wrestling champion introduced the family pup. As "People" reports, the family had already been looking for a dog to adopt at the Best Friends Animal Society in California before the cinema screening. Mother Tiffany Hernandez then found the perfect puppy for her children. The pet agency and Warner Bros. then worked together to surprise the kids at the launch of "DC League of Super-Pets."

"DC League of Super-Pets" tells the story of DC Super Heroes and their animal friends. In addition to Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Keanu Reeves and John Krasinski also dub in the English version. The film has been in German cinemas since July 28th.
