Johnson again changed his career direction and decided to pursue acting after experiencing success and rising to the status of upper-card superstar. Despite having a difficult start, he persisted and eventually rose to become one of the highest-paid actors in the business.
Dwayne Johnson, during an interview with the New York Times in 2008, revealed a very special and intimate moment he shared with the popular star from The Office, Steve Carell. Carell and Johnson starred in the 2008 movie, Get Smart.
In the interview, The Rock revealed how he once kissed Steve Carell, and how he felt during that time. He said, “ There was a certain magic that I didn’t know that I didn’t quite know we were gonna capture when I was kissing Steve Carell and we did, we kissed and frankly, this is the first time I said this publicly, I felt something. I felt something more than I typically do in acting.”
He further stated how magical and amazing it felt during that moment, and how there are no words to describe that moment. It was the first time Johnson and Carell shared the screen for the first time, and the film turned out to be extremely hilarious.
Dwayne Johnson had to wear a weird costume for his Hercules movie
During the 2014 mythological film, Hercules, Dwayne Johnson underwent a major transformation. He transformed his body into his current massive physique. Currently, he has one of the best physiques in the industry.
The 50-year-old actor during Hercules had to wear a fake beard and wig. However, the beard which he wore was unfortunately made of hair from an animal. The Rock’s makeup artist revealed that yak’s pubic hair was used to make the beard for him. He justified that the pubic hair is soft, and thus good for the wig. He further revealed that his makeup took three and a half hours every day, and how precisely the makeup had to be done.
The film received critical success, and The Rock’s performance also received immense praises as well.
