Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson appeared in a photocol and press conference for his latest film ‘The Smashing Machine’, where his specially thin body surprised many.
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson stepped on the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival on 1 September. The Hollywood star is in the prestigious event for the world premiere of its latest film ‘The Smashing Machine’, which has been selected for the competition section this year.
However, it was not just a film making film. In Johnson’s attention, pictures of Leiner Kaya scored on social media quickly, in which fans weighed his change. Wearing a fitted blue shirt and black trousers, the actor posed with co-star Emily Blunt, not only for the project, but also attracted attention to her dramatic weight loss.

Online reactions are related to fickle. Some quipped that “the rock turned into a pebble,” while others estimated the potential causes behind the change. Many fans suggested that the possibility of shift was healthy, given that the actor appears fitter and healthy than in recent years.
In the ‘The Smashing Machine’, Johnson plays the role of the famous MMA fighter Mark Carr, which is a complex role, which investigates both his professional success and personal fight with drug abuse. The 2002 documentary, inspired by the same name, also delays Kerr’s relationship with its then-partner depicted by Emily Blunt. It is directed by Beni Safi, known for her gritty and immersive filmmaking style.
Speaking during a press interaction in Venice, Johnson shared his views on taking creative risk and moving away from the roles of the formula, indicating that this intense drama is a new chapter in his career.
With both his physical changes and a challenging role in the contender of a festival, Johnson has made it clear, it is not what is used to see rock audience.
