Most of his earnings come from his movie projects and Instagram. If you have more than 200 million followers like Johnson, you could earn some spare change too. In today’s world, people earn money from social media by promoting products from companies.

The Rock also earns through social media, but it is different. Forbes has stated that Dwayne negotiates a seven-figure social media expense for every single film he appears in and promotes.

The former WWE champion’s name is no longer a name but a legacy and a business. He co-founded the entertainment production company Seven Bucks Productions alongside his ex-wife, Dany Garcia. He is also the co-owner of the American football league, the XFL.

Besides that, he promotes several different products on his Instagram, adding to his net worth. Johnson also earns seven figures in royalties for his clothing line, shoe line, and deal with Under Armour. He also invests in real estate and stocks.

How much does The Rock earn from his films?

In 2018, Rocky earned $124 million from his films and TV shows alone. Forbes reported it, and it was the largest ever in the 20 years of the magazine’s history. The same report also stated that he charges around $20 million on an average per film.

In 2019, he earned a sizeable amount from his box-office hit films, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and Hobbs and Shaw. He also starred in the fifth season of Ballers and hosted NBC’s Titan Games. The Rock took home almost $90 million that year!

In 2020, Johnson made $87.5 million, which is massive considering COVID-19 hit the world that year. That year, he hosted Titan Games again. Young Rock, for which he is the narrator, creator, and executive producer for was going to release, but the pandemic halted it.
