Headline: Dwayne Johnson admits he was 'too scared' of dramatic roles before The Smashing Machine
Caption:
The former wrestler, who is best known for his action and comedy blockbusters will soon be seen in a rare dramatic role, playing two-time UFC heavyweight champion Mark Kerr in Benny Safdie's biographical sports drama. Johnson admitted to Vanity Fair that he experienced an unprecedented level of nerves leading up to filming, because he hadn't been given many opportunities to flex his dramatic muscles. "I had not experienced that in a very, very, very long time, where I was really scared and thinking, 'I don't know if I can do this. Can I do this?'"
