A few days ago, foreign media The Wrap released a long article breaking the news that actor "The Rock" Johnson played a big name on the set of the movie "Red One", and it was common for him to be eight or nine hours late, resulting in a sharp increase in the production cost of the film by $50 million. Johnson has not yet responded.
"Red One" is an action-adventure movie co-starring "The Rock" Johnson and "American Team" Chris Evans, which is scheduled to be released at the end of next year. Foreign media said that the original budget of the film was 200 million US dollars, but due to Johnson's "disdedication", the work progress of the crew was seriously delayed, and the current cost has soared to 250 million US dollars.
Some employees of the film broke the news that after Johnson was a few hours late, he sometimes "grabbed time" in a special way, such as not going to the public toilet on the set, but urinating in a water bottle, and the staff needed to help him dispose of the water bottle full of urine.
The foreign media's breaking news article also mentioned that Johnson has been in the habit of being late for a long time for filming for many years, including during the filming of the "Fast and Furious" series. During the filming of the movie "Red Notice", another lead actor, Ryan Reynolds, had a heated argument with Johnson on the set because he was dissatisfied with his repeated tardiness.
The breaking news article also mentioned that Johnson did not comply with the crew's "isolation" regulations during filming during the epidemic, and drove a private jet home to party with family and friends without permission, which was evaluated as "very selfish" by his crew colleagues.
