Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has opened up about the challenges of being typecast in Hollywood. The actor revealed that for years, he was pigeonholed as a blockbuster action star, despite wanting to explore more diverse roles.
Johnson explained that while films like Fast & Furious and Jumanji cemented his global success, they also created an industry perception that limited his opportunities in dramas or character-driven stories. “It’s a blessing and a curse,” he said. “You’re grateful for the success, but you don’t want to be boxed in.”
Fans are now speculating whether Johnson will take on smaller, more dramatic projects in the future as he continues to redefine his career.
