Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has made a superstar arrival in the UK as he is said to be renting the same Richmond home where Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie reportedly stayed in 2016.

The 46-year-old former wrestler is well-known for his incredibly ripped physique and workout regime, so brought reinforcements in the form of his ‘Iron Paradise’ – the travel gym he brings on any location, complete with 40,000lbs of equipment, a full kitchen, no mirrors and hundreds of aides on hand to help set-up.

Seemingly confirming his move, the hardman took to Instagram to share a snap as he posed on horseback outside the palatial home, while also revealing the horse in question had starred in Gladiator and Robin Hood.

Work it on out: New images show the digs for the actor, with the sprawling estate undoubtedly the perfect set-up for the hunky star, as he celebrated Thanksgiving away from his native country

The stunning home, which has previously seen guests including Elton John and Fergie, is said to feature eight bedrooms, eight bathrooms, a garden gazebo, indoor swimming pool and a playground.

New images show the digs for the actor, with the sprawling estate undoubtedly the perfect set-up for the hunky star, as he celebrated Thanksgiving away from his native country.

In his incredible Instagram post to announce his arrival, the dashing actor posed horseback while adding the caption: ‘Good Thanksgiving hang with Rusty at the crib here in London. This ol’ boy’s a genuine star as he was Russell Crowe’s horse in one of my favorite films, GLADIATOR as well as ROBIN HOOD…

Wow! The 46-year-old former wrestler is well-known for his incredibly ripped physique and workout regime, so brought reinforcements in the form of his ‘Iron Paradise’ – the travel gym he brings on any location, complete with 40,000lbs of equipment, a full kitchen, no mirrors and hundreds of aides on hand to help set-up

Hard work! The actor has revealed the sheer extent of work it takes to set up The Iron Paradise

‘Rusty’s clearly happy when Russell is on his back, because I heard that unmistakeable horse groan of “Holyyyy shit please don’t get on me” when 6’5 265lbs of tattooed sunshine saddled up on him. Thankful to Rusty and his pal, Rosey for coming to the crib today for some Thanksgiving ridin’ w/ the ohana.’

But while not being in his home nation for Thanksgiving, the actor was sure to celebrate the holiday in the traditional way, as he posted a picture to his Instagram of a huge cooked Turkey, alongside the caption: ‘This Thanksgiving was a unique one, in that it was the first time I’ve ever not been back home in the U.S. of A.

‘But here in London, we still cooked and laid out a big, sweet spread to give our thanks and boundless gratitude for our loved ones. The weird thing – is every Thanksgiving I gotta take a moment to remember exactly 27 years ago on Thanksgiving while living in Tampa, Fl we were so p*** broke, that we couldn’t even afford to buy a turkey, so we were praying someone would invite us over for Thanksgiving.

Yummy! But while not being in his home nation for Thanksgiving, the actor was sure to celebrate the holiday in the traditional way, as he posted a picture to his Instagram of a huge cooked Turkey

He added: ‘Well, the universe answered our prayers, because friends of ours called to say Happy Thanksgiving and we were like, “HAPPY THANKSGIVING WE’LL BE RIGHT OVER TO CELEBRATE WITH YOU GUYS K BYE!!” They were like, “Uhhh okaaaay great, see you soon?” A Very true and f****** embarrassing story.

‘I’m weird this way, but remembering s***like this helps me live a better and more grateful life. I’m quite sure I need therapy for this, but until then tequila will be my loving & empathetic therapist.’

And wanting to draw his celebrations to a close in style, the Rock visited the West End, writing: ‘To close out our Thanksgiving, @laurenhashianofficial took me to see @hamiltonmusical here in London.

‘She had seen it multiple times and this was my FIRST TIME (I know, but I’m a very busy dude;) seeing this extraordinary and iconoclastic piece of art. After the show, we went backstage to meet this crazy talented and passionate cast.

Way back when: Prior to their tragic split, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (pictured in 2015) are said to have rented out the same house in Surrey according to wide spread reports – paying $24,000 a month to stay there

‘Big shout to my brother Lin Manuel Miranda for creating this whole thing and for inspiring me on yet another level. And to the HAMILTON cast members worldwide, THANK YOU for sharing your passions and above all else/ I’m scrappy and hungry and I am not throwing away my shot. Ever. Love y’all and thank ya for being so cool and gracious.’

In November, while on location in Vancouver, Dwayne shared a touching Instagram post as he thanked his team for their assistance with The Iron Paradise: ‘Sending a huge thank you to the hundreds of hard working crew responsible for always setting up my Iron Paradise aka my traveling carnival in every location I film at…

‘40,000lbs of steal and iron. I can maintain and build upon an insane work schedule, but only due to having my anchor ready to go every morning at 5am. Grateful to the bone. Thank you guys. [sic]’

That’s why he’s The Rock! Heavy machinery was on-hand to tote the materials in and out of the grounds and make sure he maintained his shape

Happy days: ‘40,000lbs of steal and iron. I can maintain and build upon an insane work schedule, but only due to having my anchor ready to go every morning at 5am. Grateful to the bone. Thank you guys’

Stunning: Aside from the gym, the location is breathtaking and most  certainly superstar worthy

Last month, Dwayne celebrated his first week of shooting the highly-anticipated Fast & Furious spin-off Hobbs & Shaw by unveiling a first look photo. The image, which he posted to Instagram, features both of the title characters, Johnson’s Luke Hobbs and Jason Statham’s Deckard Shaw.

While Statham was spotted filming scenes for the spin-off in September, The Rock finished his first week on the set in October. ‘We either gonna get along or we gonna get it on,’ Johnson, 46, said in his post. ‘F**k getting along,’ he added, along with the devil emoji.

‘Great first week of shooting our Fast & Furious spin-off, “HOBBS & SHAW” with my ace @JasonStatham,’ the Skyscraper star said. ‘We’re havin’ a blast disrupting the norm to deliver something fresh, cool, fun and bad ass for the fans,’ he concluded, including the hashtags #TheOutlawLawman, #TheInternationalSpy, #HobbsAndShaw.

New neighbour in town! The huge lorries descended onto the estate to help set up his home gym and keep his frame as ripped as ever

Sprawling: The grounds were put to good use as the tent was set up with all the modern additions of any fitness emporium

Always on-brand: He decorated the temporary gym with both logos celebrating the gym and also a poster for the movie

The action superstar also tagged the Universal Pictures Instagram along with the spin-off’s director, David Leitch, while giving photo credit to his Seven Bucks Productions producing partner Hiram Garcia.

Very little is known about the story at this point, except that it will featuring the unlikely duo of U.S. Diplomatic Security agent Luke Hobbs and notorious criminal Deckard Shaw.

There is no love lost between Hobbs and Shaw, who were part of a massive prison brawl in 2017’s The Fate of the Furious, although why they are teaming up in this spin-off is currently unclear.

Happy days: He made himself truly at home with the arrival of his much-loved and very well-used equipment

All hands on deck: His team worked extremely hard to perfect the gym which travels with him all over the world

Pumping iron: The ripped star pumped iron in front of his two-year-old daughter Jasmine

Johnson and Statham, 51, lead a cast that also includes Idris Elba as the new villain, along with Vanessa Kirby, who Variety reported in July is playing Deckard Shaw’s sister, an MI-5 agent.

Helen Mirren played Deckard Shaw’s mother in The Fate of the Furious, with Statham telling Collider in August that Mirren will return in Hobbs & Shaw.

‘We’re trying to do something that isn’t so goofy though,’ Statham said. ‘I know the last time she slapped me around the face and we got this little … We don’t want to take it too seriously.’

Load me up! The lorry was carrying a host of the star’s expert equipment as he made sure he was right at home
