Dwayne Johnson has shared another new image from the set of director Brett Ratner’s Hercules.  The film provides a fresh perspective on the familiar story and is described as “a revisionist take on the classic myth set in a grounded world where the supernatural does not exist.”  This latest image shows Johnson in full costume brandishing a rather brutal-looking weapon, and given his strength one can only imagine the kind of damage it will do.

Hit the jump to check out the new image.  The film also stars Ian McShane, Rufus Sewell, Joseph Fiennes, Peter Mullan, John Hurt, Rebecca Ferguson, Ingrid Bolso Berdal, Askel Hennie, and Reece Ritchie.  Hercules opens on July 25, 2014.
