Dwayne Johnson Addresses Set Tardiness Rumors, Confirms Dedication to Professionalism.
Hollywood star Dwayne Johnson has recently responded to rumors regarding his punctuality and unique on-set habits. In a candid interview with GQ Magazine, Johnson addressed the speculation that he often arrives late to film sets, acknowledging occasional delays but dismissing extreme claims as exaggerated.
“Well, I’ve said it a thousand times: ‘Come and ask me, I’ll tell you the truth,’” Johnson remarked. Known for his rigorous work ethic, he admitted to some quirky practices, including “peeing in a bottle while working.” Johnson explained that while he may sometimes arrive a bit behind schedule, accusations of excessive tardiness were “ridiculous” and “bananas.” He firmly assured fans of his commitment to professionalism, calling the rumors “bull***t.”
Jake Kasdan, director of Johnson’s upcoming holiday action-comedy Red One, defended Johnson’s reliability. “He never missed a day of work, ever,” Kasdan praised, adding that minor delays are not uncommon in Hollywood and that Johnson’s commitment on set is unwavering. Co-star Chris Evans also voiced support, stating that the cast and crew adapt seamlessly to Johnson’s schedule, emphasizing that he’s seen “far more disruptive behavior on other sets.”
Set to release on November 15, Red One features an all-star cast, including Johnson, Chris Evans, Lucy Liu, and JK Simmons. The film promises to deliver a high-energy Christmas story, bringing together action, humor, and heart.
