Dwayne Johnson admitted to being late and urinating in a bottle on set
Dwayne Johnson doesn’t often say harsh words when it comes to on-set behavior. Back in 2021, he speak Vanity fair about the chaos behind the scenes with Vin Diesel on many types Fast and furious movie and earlier this year Johnson confirmed he was not an “idiot.” who shouted at me? Rebecca Ferguson on a movie.
Now, the 52-year-old star is clearing up rumors about her formal dressing style on set. Redan upcoming Christmas adventure horror film starring Chris Evans And JK Simmons like Santa Claus. In April, the wrap reported that Johnson’s frequent tardiness and odd behavior, including his habit of peeing in a water bottle to save time while filming, helped increase the film’s budget by a staggering $250 million.
Johnson calls the controversy “bullshit” a new one GQ cover storybut there is no denying that the film’s budget has increased. “Yeah, that happens too,” he said. “But by the way, not that amount. That’s some bananas. That’s crazy. Ridiculous.”
As for the whispers about peeing? “Yeah,” Johnson said GQ about peeing in water bottles to save time on set. “It happens…I’ve said a thousand times: ‘Hey, I’m here. Come and ask me. And I will tell you the truth.’”
The work also includes eyewitness statements from himself. Red collaborator. “[Dwayne] never missed a day of work,” the director said Jake Kasdan. “He has a lot going on. He may be late sometimes, but that’s Hollywood – everyone is. Honestly, I did three big movies with him. I have never seen how wonderful he is to everyone on set.”
Evans also came to Johnson’s defense. “In terms of the guy I saw, compared to some of the things I’ve seen on other movies with other actors who are not only unaware of other people’s time and effort but can’t predict first?” Evans said. “I see Dwayne like that—we all know exactly what he’s going to do when he’s going to do it.”
As Evans explains, Johnson usually works out every day in the morning before going to the studio. “It wasn’t like he was unexpectedly late, and I wouldn’t even call it late,” he said. “He comes in a little later some mornings, but that’s part of the plan. It’s on the schedule and everyone knows it, so he’ll show up when it’s scheduled.”
As a testament to Johnson’s goodwill with Red cast and crew, Evans also mentioned the time his co-star made a sizable donation to the production’s Five Dollar Friday raffle. “It was four or five thousand dollars or something,” Evans said, “and before they pulled out the names, Dwayne said, ‘Now what’s the amount?’ And someone said, ‘I don’t know, four thousand.’ And he said, ‘Let’s call it 20.’” Before anyone knew it, according to Evans, Johnson had added thousands to the prize. “’What about 30 this time?’ Everyone is crazy. And then he said, ‘You know what? How about one more?” And that was 50,” Evans recalled. “I think one Friday, Dwayne donated something close to a hundred thousand dollars.”
Consider Johnson’s place on the well-preserved list, at least by some of them. Red colleague.
