Dwayne Johnson recently went down memory lane when he joined Hollywood and had to change his agents because of Will Smith and George Clooney, the two of Hollywood’s highest-profile actors at the time.
In a new interview with GQ, the 52-year-old actor recalled that he once changed agents who doubted that Dwayne could be as big as stars such as George or Will.
The Moana 2 actor, who is a wrestler-turned-actor, according to a publication, admitted that he had thought that he “could be bigger” than both the actors.
Dwayne, who made his film debut in The Mummy Returns in 2001, added, “And I mean that respectfully.”
“But also maybe do things differently, because there’s no blueprint, I feel like, for a guy like me, who looks like me.”
“But I feel now looking back on the career…. Bigger than Will, bigger than George? I think the declaration is just: different.”
On the work front, the Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle star recently starred in the Christmas-set action movie Red One starring Chris Evans.
