Earlier this year, Hollywood insiders published a report venting their frustrations with the collaboration. Dwayne Johnson. Production issues included Johnson’s “chronic tardiness, lack of professionalism on set and inexperience of the producers.”
It was also explained, “On set, away from his trailer, if he needed to pee, he wouldn’t go to a public bathroom. He peed in a Voss water bottle and his team or PA had to dispose of it.”
It turns out that these things are true, as confirmed by Johnson himself. In a new GQ profile, Johnson was asked about his reported tardiness, saying: “Yes, it does happen. But by the way, it’s not that amount. It’s the banana amount. It’s crazy. .
Insiders say Johnson “was up to eight hours late to filming, forcing the crew to film around him at times.”
It was later reported that “on previous films, Johnson had developed a habit of peeing in water bottles to save time, which upset the crew.”
Asked about the urination reports, Johnson confirmed: “Yes. It happens… I’ve said it a thousand times: ‘Hey, I’m here. Ask me. I’ll tell You truth.
So, that’s it! Dwayne Johnson pees in a bottle to save time while filming his movies. He will next star in a Christmas action film, red number oneand the director Jack Kasdan and co-stars chris evans In defense of Johnson.
Kasdan said: “[Dwayne] Never missed a day of work. He has a lot to do. He’s sometimes late, but that’s Hollywood—that’s how everyone does it. Honestly, I did three big movies with him. I’ve never seen him be so great to everyone on set.
Evans added, “From what I’ve seen of this guy, compared to other actors I’ve seen in other movies, who are not only unaware of other people’s time and effort, but unpredictable? I Spotting Dwayne – we all know exactly what he’s going to do when he’s about to do it.
“But that’s a matter for the producer and the director and all his team, so they all know that. So it’s all basic. He wasn’t unexpectedly late, I wouldn’t even say late.”
“He’ll be a little late on some mornings, but that’s part of the plan. It’s built into the schedule and everyone knows that, so he’ll show up at the scheduled time.
Evans also noted that Johnson gave staff red number one Prizes total $100,000.
“this [giveaway] The pot was up to four or five pounds or something like that, and before they said names, Dwayne said, “What’s the pot now?” Someone said, “I don’t know, big four.” He said, “We’ll just call it Let’s call it 20. “They put out a name and whoever wins is going to lose it. Dwayne said, “You know what? Should we do it again? How about 30 this time? Everybody went crazy.
“Then he said, ‘You know what? How about another one?’ It was $50.
Finally, it sounds like working with Johnson isn’t as bad as people say it is, but…yeah, handling his bottles of urine is definitely not a job anyone wants. Personal assistants can always make some extra cash by selling them online. I’m sure there are some weird people out there who would buy Johnson’s urine.
