As for how he got through the long hours of difficult training? Well, Dwayne—who shares kids Jasmine, 9, and Tiana, 6, with wife Lauren Hashian as well as daughter Simone, 24, with ex-wife Dany Garcia—couldn’t have done it without encouragement from his friends and family.
“I had a lot of good people around me who said, ‘Yeah, you can do it and we’ll help you do it,’” he noted. “So that’s the key.”
After all, the Moana actor didn’t accept the role for recognition or awards—though he has generated some serious Oscars buzz ahead of the 2026 Academy Awards.
“I wanted to do something for me,” he explained. “I wanna do something that allows me to rip myself open and really dive deep. I had Benny Safdie, who was that director to say, ‘You can do it. Not only can you do it, I got you.’”
