Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson made headlines after videos and
photos of him at the Venice Film Festival show a major
difference: a very noticeable drop in weight.
Johnson looks like he lost around 60lbs from his bulky
frame, drawing comparisons to recent photos of Dave Bautista
who also look way skinnier than his WWE days.WWE event

Speaking to Variety, Johnson said that he finally realized
he was living other people’s dreams and not living his own
dream when it comes to acting.
“A lot of times, it’s harder for us — or at least for me —
to know what you’re capable of when you’ve been pigeonholed
into something,” he said. “Sometimes it takes people that
who you love and respect, like Emily and Benny, to say that
you can.”
Johnson was referring to his Smashing Machine co-star Emily
Blunt and director Benny Safdie. He is in Venice to promote
the movie which comes out on October 3.
