- In the fast-paced action thriller SNITCH, Dwayne Johnson stars as a father whose teenage son is wrongly accused of a drug distribution crime and is looking at a mandatory minimum prison sentence of 10 years. Desperate and determined to rescue his son at all costs, he makes a deal with the U.S. attorney to work as an undercover informant and infiltrate a drug cartel on a dangerous mission -- risking everything, including his family and his own life.
  The ensemble cast includes ACADEMY AWARD® Winner Susan Sarandon, EMMY® Nominee Benjamin Bratt and GOLDEN GLOBE® Nominee Barry Pepper.
  Inspired by a true story, the screenplay was written by Justin Haythe (The Lone Ranger, Revolutionary Road, The Clearing) and adapted by the film’s director Ric Roman Waugh.
