Who Inspired Dwayne Johnson To Become An Actor?
November 29th, 2010 - 8:43 pm ICT by Sampurn Wire
Therefore, one can safely conclude that Harrison Ford was Dwayne Johnson’s favorite actor. Though the actor does not give any confirmation on this, he says that Harrison Ford was not what Arnold Schwarzenegger is to action, yet the actor brought to life Indiana Jones in his personal charming way.
Though the former wrestler’s acting career does not speak of anything to boast of, his brief appearances in ‘The Scorpion King’ and ‘The Mummy Returns’ were enough to draw the attention of many filmmakers who wanted to cash in on the popularity of Dwayne Johnson among the American masses. The 38-year-old actor says that he is hungry for more action on the big screen and so wants to appear in an out and out Indiana Jones styled movie in Hollywood.
Dwayne Johnson is presently in talks with Simon West to work in his upcoming film ‘Protection’.
