Dwayne Johnson certainly knows how to light up a room—whether it’s on the big screen or the red carpet. As he stepped into the spotlight for the premiere of his new film, Red One, on November 3, 2024, in Berlin, he brought his signature charisma and infectious energy. This film isn’t just another holiday flick; it’s set to blend action & comedy in a way that will have audiences cheering for joy.
While in Berlin for the premiere of this forthcoming movie, Johnson took the opportunity to treat his fans to a playful behind-the-scenes moment on Instagram. He posted a quick video from his visit to Madame Tussauds in Berlin, where his playful personality shone through.
While at the wax museum, he didn’t shy away from having a good time. He praised Nicole Kidman’s wax figure, flirted with Angelina Jolie’s, and even shared a few lighthearted comments about the wax figures of fellow stars like Leonardo DiCaprio and Will Smith.
Dwayne Johnson’s Whirlwind Visit to Madame Tussauds Berlin
When Dwayne Johnson steps into the spotlight, it’s hard not to take notice. During his recent visit to Berlin for the Red One premiere on November 3, 2024, he took a quick trip to Madame Tussauds (via Instagram).
It was his first time visiting Berlin’s Madame Tussauds, and he quickly became enchanted by the artistry on display. His admiration for Nicole Kidman’s wax figure was particularly noteworthy; he remarked, “She is beautiful”. The Rock, 52, even playfully attempted to kiss the figure of Tom Cruise’s ex-wife.
Continuing his wax figure tour, Johnson flirted with Angelina Jolie’s likeness, expressing his delight by stating that she looked “incredible”. Before diving into the compliments, he made sure to confirm that the figure was indeed meant to represent Jolie.
Johnson made sure to greet the wax figures of Will Smith and Brad Pitt, noting that Leonardo DiCaprio “also looks good”. His playful banter was not limited to just the figures; he took a moment to interact with a young fan, introducing her to his own wax figure.
“That’s me,” he said with pride, adding a humorous twist by asking if she believed it, playfully referencing his daughter’s skepticism: “She says, ‘I don’t give a sh*t.’” Well, he even admired his own wax figure before thanking the museum staff for giving him a slimmer waist.
Directed by Jake Kasdan and penned by Chris Morgan, Red One features a stellar lineup that includes Chris Evans, Lucy Liu, J.K. Simmons, and Kiernan Shipka.
Anticipation Builds for Dwayne Johnson’s Red One
As the holiday season approaches, excitement is brewing around Amazon MGM Studios’ upcoming blockbuster, Red One. This film, featuring the dynamic duo of Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans, has made a splash on tracking reports, projecting an impressive $36 million opening weekend in the U.S. and Canada (per Deadline’s report).
Set to hit theaters on November 15, 2024, this Christmas caper is already generating buzz, and there’s a palpable sense of anticipation.
Originally intended for streaming, Red One saw a strategic pivot to a theatrical release after strong test screenings. This decision speaks volumes about the confidence Amazon MGM has in the film’s appeal. When a studio makes such a shift, it typically indicates a belief that the film can recoup its production and marketing costs at the box office, and with Red One, the outlook appears positive.
This kind of recognition could provide Red One with a significant edge in a crowded market, where other big releases like Moana 2 and Wicked are also vying for attention. As we approach its release, fans are eager to see how it will perform and whether it can usher in a new wave of holiday flicks.
Mark your calendars—this one promises to deliver a hearty dose of cheer and fun!
