🌋 Plot Summary

After narrowly escaping devastation in the original San Andreas, Ray Gaines (Dwayne Johnson) and his daughter Blake have started rebuilding their lives on the West Coast. But peace doesn’t last long. When a series of unprecedented aftershocks fracture previously stable fault lines, a mega-quake threatens to obliterate both the Pacific Ring of Fire and the San Andreas fault.

Amid collapsing bridges, volcanic tremors, and tsunamis cascading into cities, Ray reunites with FEMA agent María Torres and seismologist Dr. Mateo Alvarez. Racing against time and tectonic fury, they must navigate burning metropolises—from Los Angeles to San Francisco—while rescuing thousands trapped in an extinction-level crisis.

As aftershocks trigger new fault lines and tidal waves surge inland, Ray’s determination to protect Blake and countless strangers makes him the hero Earth needs—but only if he can solve the seismic puzzle before the final “shock” hits.
