Comment on Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is crumbling
Emperor@feddit.uk 4 weeks agoWell, I might not go that far. Other sources from the FF set suggest (checks ironimeter) that VD was late to set, as well as arrogant. And The Rock?
As for The Rock, the crew apparently love the guy and consider him the “ultimate professional,” as he was always on-time and frequently nailed his scenes.
Perhaps being late to set is a weapon “insiders” deploy as character assassination or perhaps some actors reach a point (round about when they start getting producer credits perhaps? Possibly where they reach the point in their career where everyone tells them they crap gold) where unprofessionalism kicks in.
Similar criticism was levelled at Tom Hardy on Fury Road (being late where Charlize Theron was always first in) and he has held his hands up to it.

Or maybe dude has a lot of shit going on and can’t schedule to save his life

Hence observations like these. There may be a good reason other than “they’ll wait on the star,” but that’s also a shitty way to treat others.
If he’s busy, he’s gotta deconflict or drop items from the schedule. Arriving on set late can waste the time of dozens of others and rack up unnecessary costs. Even if he pays everybody for the time wasted, that’s still time that could have been spent on other things that is just gone
