Dwayne Johnson takes to Instagram to share a heartwarming video in which he falls for his adorable daughter's hilarious prank. Considered to be one of the greatest wrestlers of all time following a lengthy career as a WWE champion, Johnson, otherwise known as "The Rock," has since become one of Hollywood's most recognizable faces, having made the leap over to acting. One of his first major roles saw him star as the Scorpion King in 2001's The Mummy Returns and its subsequent spinoff film, The Scorpion King. Johnson has since starred in a variety of massive projects, including the Fast & Furious franchise, the Jumanji reboots, and Disney's Moana.

With a string of incredibly successful projects under his belt, Johnson is now set to enter a whole new cinematic universe as he joins the DCEU. Taking on the role of comic book anti-hero Black Adam, Johnson has teased this upcoming project will mark a shift in the hierarchy of power within the DC Universe, with the powerful character set to cause quite a stir among the previously established heroes. Though his current focus may be on Black Adam, which releases in theaters later this year, Johnson also has a variety of other exciting projects on the horizon, including a sequel to last year's Jungle Cruise, as well as a reboot of 1986's Big Trouble in Little China.
Although busy with these upcoming projects, Johnson recently took to Instagram to share an incredibly sweet video of him and his daughter. The clip sees him fall for a prank in which his daughter tells him to close his eyes before smashing him in the face with a combination of peanut butter and shaving cream. The actor joked "some fools never learn" after posting a similar clip earlier this year, in which his daughters pulled the same sweet trick. The adorable video quickly received an influx of likes and comments, with many praising the actor's heartwarming relationship with his young daughter. Check out the clip below:
