The Rock started his acting era with The Mummy Returns in 2001 as The Scorpion King. After that, he never had to look back as he went on to grab some memorable ventures such as Jumanji and Fast and the Furious.
Dwayne Johnson took to his Twitter account to announce about his win and thanked his fans in a tweet. He humorously wrote that he thanks his Gen Z fans for letting a Gen X win it.
Tom Holland, best known as Spider-Man, is listed behind The Rock, with Johnny Depp coming in third. Intriguingly, Depp, who frequently made headlines in the recent past, was ranked first among Gen X celebrities, while Johnson was more effective in attracting a younger fanbase.
The proprietor of Seven Bucks Production is extremely active on social media and has frequently mentioned that he enjoys listening to his supporters. This is another important element in why everyone adores him. The 50-year-old actor’s most recent movie, Black Adam, bombed at the box office, and he struggled to establish himself in Washington, D.C. With the news of Teth Adam’s absence in DC’s near future, Dwayne Johnson has to wait for a big comeback venture.

Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam failed at the box office
Despite creating massive worldwide hype around his DC appearance, Dwayne Johnson failed to achieve big in the DC as Black Adam. The fans were disappointed after it was announced that Black Adam will be absent from the initial phase of James Gunn’s new DCU.
Additionally, it was claimed that Dwayne Johnson turned down numerous small cameo roles in films like Shazam 2 and The Flash, which led many viewers to label him egotistic and served as the primary justification for his ejection from DC. However, the support for the Red Notice actor is too great to be weakened by a single setback. Now, Johnson is apparently collaborating on the Red One project with Captain America actor Chris Evans and has plans to turn it into a franchise.
The holiday release of Red One is scheduled for 2023, but HBO Max now has Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam streaming.
