Dwayne Johnson facing hell on earth in new “Hercules” trailer

A television spot for director Brett Ratner's epic Hercules sees Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson facing hell on earth, Digital Spy said.

This latest film adaptation of Hercules mythos centres on the hero uniting with King of Thrace (John Hurt) in a revenge plot against a brutal tyrant.

Ratner's movie is based on Hercules: The Thracian Wars, the Radical Comics graphic novel from Steve Moore and Cris Bolsin.

Ian McShane, Rufus Sewell, Joseph Fiennes and Rebecca Ferguson are also in the new movie.

Johnson was first attached to Hercules back in March 2012.
