Dwayne Johnson Explains Recent Weight Loss (Exclusive)

You were emotional and fast. 15 minutes of a standing ovation. Kevin, it was the most surreal thing I had experienced. The credits couldn't even roll before that audience erupted. There's no other high like it in the world. Are you leaving that action genre behind? Opera is next, isn't it? Opera is next. Broadway. In The Smashing Machine, out October 3rd, Dwayne is unrecognizable as real-life MMA and UFC champion Mark Kerr, who overcame a harrowing struggle with addiction. Emily Blunt plays his wife. By the way, Emily's a hell of an upgrade over Kevin Hart, right? Fair to say. I mean, I don't want to be the one to say it, but... Well, she's a lot taller. Come here. You said you got a little nervous before the big fight scene that you had. What were those moments like? Well, you say it. I think we're still recovering. I just need you to let me in. Okay, you can't answer this question, but I just want you to say, yes, it's going to be great, Devil Wears Prada. I can. Okay, go ahead. Is it going to be great? It's going to be great. It's going to be great. It'll be fun though, right? No, it's going to be so much fun. Everyone's going to hate it. They're going to hate it. That, I can't even talk about. And now, Dwayne's revealing more about his next project, Lizard Music. It starts shooting next summer, and it's the reason for his recent slim down. I'm going to play a man known as a chicken man. I put on over 30 pounds to play Mark Kerr. I had to come back down to normal weight and then probably lose another, not another, but maybe somewhere in the 20, 25 to 30 pounds just to play the chicken man. Do you miss your French toast? I miss my French toast. So bad. But I still have it. No, once a week. I think that's important.
