'Gridiron Gang' Cast: Where Are They Now?

Dwayne, "The Rock" Johnson, was in the early stages of his movie career when he was featured in Gridiron Gang. Loosely based on a true story, Gridiron Gang, released in 2006, focuses on a man named Sean Porter (Johnson) who works at a detention center in Los Angeles. He becomes frustrated when he cannot help kids get away from their issues, including drug dealings and street gangs. Porter comes up with the idea of starting a football team so the kids can feel they belong to something.

"I work a lot with young kids, whether they are young, underprivileged kids or After School All-Stars, my own foundation Rock Foundation or Make-a-Wish," Johnson said in a 2006 interview with Blackfilm.com when talking about Gridiron Gang. "What this movie did, it re-affirmed a feeling that I had that it's just nice to see people out there who really, really care. A guy like Sean Porter, who is in a thankless job and a selfless guy, still works to this day at a prison for kids. He is a probation officer who just really wants to change their lives, who really, really, really cares." Here's a look at what the cast is up to now.
