With His Final Project of 2023, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Shatters Hollywood Records Thanks to ‘Biggest Payday an Actor Has Ever Received for a Single Role’

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has an inspiring success story. Years of hard work after being a broke teenager have brought Johnson where he currently is. Even now, the former wrestler does not stop achieving greater things. Johnson’s new achievement is related to his Hollywood career. Although he has bagged plenty of accolades in his professional run as an actor, this one may especially seize your attention.

This is because reports suggest that Johnson has broken all records in Hollywood. Despite there being higher-paid actors in Hollywood than The Rock, the former WWE Champion was able to leave them behind with his latest paycheck.

Dwayne Johnson is reportedly receiving the biggest Hollywood paycheck ever

Johnson’s last Hollywood project was DCU’s ‘Black Adam’. Despite the fanbase’s excitement, the film did not do well at the box office, nor was it considered a good film by the critics. That did not stop The Rock from moving ahead with full force. Turns out, ‘Seven Bucks Productions’ are partnering up with some more production houses to bring a movie exclusively to Amazon Prime Video.

Johnson will serve as the lead of the movie ‘Red One’, coming out during the Holiday season of 2023.

The movie is reported to be a Christmas-themed action-comedy. And according to the sources, Johnson is receiving $50 Million for the upcoming project. While Tom Cruise, the highest-paid Hollywood actor, takes around $30 Million for a movie, The Rock will withdraw much more than him for this one project which is the biggest payday an actor has ever received for a single role.

This is also a much bigger amount than the usual $20-$25 Million that Johnson gets per movie.

First and foremost, if you weren’t already aware, now is the time to be happy for Johnson’s big return to the Fast & Furious Franchise. ‘Hobbs’ was able to put aside his differences with co-star Vin Diesel to move ahead with the franchise together.

Moving on, The Brahma Bull also confirmed that he will be reprising his role as ‘Maui the demigod’ in the live-action remake of Disney’s ‘Moana’. Unfortunately, the Moana voice actress herself won’t be returning to the live-action version. But, fans of the hit animated movie may find comfort in knowing that Maui is returning exactly the same.
