REUTERS – Hollywood star Dwayne Johnson attended the premiere of his new action movie “Skyscraper” in New York on Tuesday (June 10).

The movie tells the story of a US war veteran and father who has to go to extreme lengths to save his family from a burning skyscraper.

“Look I wanted to make a movie that was an homage to Die Hard, Towering Inferno, The Fugitive, Cliffhanger, movies like that, but also had an anchor and that anchor is family and protecting your family and keeping your family together.” – Dwayne Johnson

The film directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber and co-starring Neve Campbell is scheduled for release in U.S. cinemas July 13.
