That's a traditional Samoan dance. I was lucky that I was able to fly my cousins, who are professional dancers, up from Hawaii and they were able to be in the movie with me. We had a great time.
You wanna do this...you wanna go right now...do you want to, GO?...then go get The Rock a bologna sandwich because this doesn't concern you.
Always asked, 'Whats the key to success?' The key is, there is no key. Be humble, hungry and always be the hardest worker in the room.
Making movies has not only been an incredibly collaborative process but there's three big parts: pre-production, shooting itself and then post-production, which leads into marketing. And if you're passionate about the movie and you believe in it, and it would make sense that you are having done it, then you want to get out and promote it. It makes it a lot easier when the film is good and people are enjoying it.
Training not only anchors my day but also allows me to tap into endless energy and intensity. Whether I was performing at Wrestlemania or shooting a 16 hour day on a movie set, training allows the floodgates to open. It carries me through the rest of the day and night.
If you've ever been hungry then you'll never be full and I know what it's like to be hungry. When I was 13, I realized I could control my destiny through hard work. I had my hands and I was going to work my ass off, I was going to initiate and create some sort of change in my life.
Shine it up real nice, turn it sideways, and stick it straight up your candy ass!
Success at anything will always come down to this: focus & effort. And we control both.
The first step to achieving your goal, is to take a moment to respect your goal. Know what it means to you to achieve it.
I want to be a man who is truthful and who won't let pride get in the way of ripping myself open to my partner and saying 'Here I am. This is me.' I feel there's something powerful when a man reaches a point in his life when he can be completely vulnerable.
Getting back into the action genre is like going back home. It's great.
I want someone who can trust that my big hands are going to take care of them.
Michael Cole, The Rock knows that you have never, EVER, had a piece of poontang pie!
I think that always makes it fun, trying to create a heroic character and putting your own twist on it and injecting your own personality into it.
