‘Stops Me In My Tracks’: The Rock Shares Video Of His Emotional Interaction With A Fan, Opens Up About The Deep Reason Why It Means So Much To Him

In anticipation of the release of Dwayne Johnson’s next film Red, The Rock met a ton of fans in London this week, and it was a really sweet moment between him and a young fan. THE WWE pro turned Hollywood star prepares for the The red release on the 2024 movie schedule promoting it around the world, and when a 13-year-old boy cried during their meeting, Johnson explained why he was “really moved” by the interaction.

Dwayne Johnson met a ton of young fans on Wednesday alongside his Red co-stars Chris Evans, Lucy Liu and JK Simmons. Check out what happened while he met fans and signed posters:

The Rock made 13-year-old Ricky cry when he approached him and started a conversation. Ricky told Johnson that he was also a professional actor, which suggested they work together one day. The actor gave him a hug, but that wasn’t the end of the interaction. Later he caught JK Simmons meet Ricky too! The boy became even more emotional when he spoke to Simmons about his love for his work in Spiderman And Whiplash. In response, Simmons joked that his last role as Santa Claus torn is “a much nicer guy.”

This adorable moment didn’t just air on Dwayne Johnson Instagramand the actor also shared that the interaction meant a lot to him. In his words:

I am always very moved when young boys cry in front of me. This stops me in my tracks because we boys never want to get emotional in front of people, let alone cry in front of grown men we admire. It’s in our DNA to hide your emotions, so I’m proud of this kid – keeping your cool, keeping your sense of humor, keeping your manners – while holding back your tears Very cool to meet you, Ricky and keep working hard young man. We’ll see you at the top one day. And a big shout out to my “big brother”, JK Simmons, for coming to make this kid’s day. You are a legend. One day we will all work for Ricky in Hollywood

Wow, what a sweet feeling. This is so true that men in particular are generally taught to hide their emotions. So it’s so refreshing to see a young man express how he feels in front of one of his heroes and be accepted in The Rock’s presence.

Ricky certainly touched Johnson and he did the boy some good by coming back to allow him to meet another one of his heroes, JK Simmons. I imagine it’s very rewarding to not only have that kind of interaction, but also to be encouraged by people who are so successful.

Dwayne Johnson recently spoke about also challenging masculinity while speaking about the future of Maui In Moana 2. The Rock said he believes “asking for help is actually a superpower” and that message will be present in the upcoming sequel. Before we hear Johnson in the next Moana film, however, you can see the actor in Redwhich hits theaters on November 15. You can consult our Red goodbye here on CinemaBlend.
