Rock’s TV Success Continues
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s HBO show Ballers got renewed for a fourth season. The renewal coincided with fellow HBO show Insecure‘s pick up.
Amy Gravitt, executive vice president of HBO Programming said:
“We’re thrilled that the summer lineup of BALLERS and INSECURE connected with our viewers out of the gate. We’re so proud to work with Dwayne, Issa [Rae] and all of the amazing talent in both shows.”
Johnson stars as Spencer Strasmore, a financial manager for Miami’s sports players. Johnson thanked HBO for picking up the show for another season and the viewers earlier on Tuesday.
