So I do they're still in that stage where like I impress them. Yes. I'm very excited Yes, sort of white knuckling it clinging on to that right guys Uh last time we were together I mentioned it was a jungle cruise, which I look it's one of those films My family we put on all the time. I just love your chemistry And I love that y'all got together again to do this, but it's very different which I love Totally different this ended up happening because of oppenheimer, right? You were on the set Well, I know that dj had spoken to benny like three years prior 2019 Documentary by the documentary. I was inspired by the documentary I watched benny was the guy. Yes. Talk to benny and then I'm gonna keep talking over you watch this. Yeah Welcome to my life. I'm, so sorry. Keep going. No, no, no, go ahead story. No, go ahead. Tell your story I know it began No, I know it began a long time ago because you were inspired by the story by mark kerr I was and then benny and I agreed to do it in 2019 and then covet hit And then it all went away and then cut to oppenheimer set yeah, but this is all about a sweater I heard it's all about a sweater So benny and I are in the makeup trailer and he goes you're friends with duane, right? And I went yeah, and he goes did he get the sweater? I sent him like as if he would know that information as if i'm sort of privy to gift giving wardrobe. Yeah his wardrobe Um, I said, what do you mean? What sweater and then he told me about the smashing machine told me they were going to do it And this was a very famous sweater that mark kerr wore in the documentary It's a yellow nautica sweater. Yeah, and benny had during covet really wanted to still Implore dj like I still want to do this movie with you. He found a sweater He found the nautica sweater online sent it to duane with an impassioned note and he never got the sweater So benny was thought he was being ghosted He thought that benny had never reached out So they really had they had this breakup and it was sad and so I got them to date again You're like jesus bringing people together. I really am I mean, I wouldn't want to say it but yeah You're right, but you're right. You nailed it actually And at that point a couple dealing with relationship issues and addiction all wrapped up in the world of mixed martial arts fighting and that Scene kind of is a really good kind of depiction of the show it's these really intense moments that are Beautiful but like tragic like, you know, even though like it's here like why you're in but I want you to explain everybody Kind of the you saw the documentary, right? I saw the documentary based on mark kerr and I thought it was it's a really compelling story He's mark kerr was one of the founding godfathers of mma and he wound up having areas right there He had this incredible career. He was undefeated at one time. He was the greatest fighter on the planet And like a lot of these fighters you learn it's not about the wins or the losses It's about the pressure and the pressure that they have to go through and what happens when sometimes they stumble and in mark's case He stumbled he Had a hard time with addiction. He overdosed twice. He's lucky to be alive He was with the love of his life and they have a beautiful kid together they're divorced now, but they also had Uh an incredibly challenging relationship to as well. And of course, so emily No I was watching I was like, oh my god those fights they have that we have. Yeah No, they're like crazy volcanic fights that they had it was wild. Yeah Um, emily asked if you were scared and and when you started filming right? Yeah, and what happened with that question? So this role for me, uh was the biggest challenge of my career and I knew it going into it. So It was a scary thing and but us is for me and for a lot of men It's not the thing we always want to admit. Yeah, we're scared to do something So she on our first day of shooting she goes. Hey, are you are you scared? And I said i'm good And then she goes but that's not what I asked you I said are you scared? And I said I am yeah, so she's like that's good means it matters it matters. Yeah, you gotta be scared It's good. Yeah. Yeah I yeah, but I it's just incredible transformation as well And like what you have to do with your body to prepare for I was just like, oh no 30 pounds. No I was like, it just looks so hard all of it Physically emotionally I was like you are a different human. Um, you filmed to japan, which I love japan It's incredible. I heard that you went to the I whenever I went I didn't go You went to an immersive art museum. It was the best I know so we went to it like an after hours and I sent some pictures of us. Oh, look at that There it is. Yeah, that's benny our director. Yeah Isn't that wild? Is it true? Benny had y'all listening to 90s to 90s music? Oh the best playlist love 90s. Yes Yeah best from sublime to Yeah A lot of springsteen eight minutes on the jungle land, which is in a movie that's in there The billy swan cover of don't be cruel No, i'm obsessed with that. I'm totally ripping off the idea and doing it as a kelly oaky. I was Me and my manager like is this don't be cruel. I was like what's happening? It's so gorgeous That's the coolest version. Honestly Oh, whoever did the music in the film just nailed like, you know i'm saying it just really benny did everything Like that's all benny's vision. God. It's so cool It really does like really you feel like you're in that time You do and he sent us the list when we were rehearsing when we were Building these characters like that was the soundtrack of that of this movie. We played it in the trailer It was so evocative and cool John cicada What do you hope people like the overall takeaway because I think people Might have the you know, you see smash machine you think oh it's going to be about fighting, right? It's actually not about fighting I feel like so what do you hope people take away from it? I mean, I guess I hope that people feel Somewhat soothed by how much they relate to him That no one can relate to the guy who's the heavyweight champ of the world, but we all relate to struggle and I think If you can walk away Understanding the idea that don't let your need to succeed your need to win eclipse your need to be okay And and I would say to add to that is When you watch these fighters, whether you're a big fan of mma ufc and you watch these women and men fight The thing to remember too is they sacrifice everything when they go in the cage Literally, they put their lives on the line. Yeah, they're not the only ones it's the wives at home The husband's at home the kids so much sacrifice so much sacrifice goes on that you never see Yeah, it just must it must hurt a little bit now that he knows like how much these people are paid and it's like man I paved the way. Yeah, you know and they weren't paid that amount and it's like oh but I think actually when we premiered in venice and you know the cards that come up at the end and it says his his name was marker and it really is this like Embrace of who he is the crowd went insane. Yeah, and mark just cried and cried because I think the recognition that he's had a life worth living rather than a life that he Was ashamed about was ashamed about like what he did and his his addiction. He owns it beautifully But I think it was like in that moment. I saw this like reclamation of his imprint on the world and it was So beautiful, but there's so many lessons in tragedy like that's completely that's what I think is is beautiful about that. Yeah Welcome back and dwayne johnson are here and super cool Their new movie is called the smashing machine in honor of that movie It is time for our producers to make a fool of us in a game called The vocal smashing machine That was pretty hot I like that okay god in the machine a little help Oh, wow, thank you Yes, it is.
