Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has been named the highest paid actor of 2024, and he’s already going strong on Netflix in 2024.

The wrestling legend turned Hollywood juggernaut was recently reported to have landed a role in Martin Scorsese’s next blockbuster with a live action Moana adaptation in the pipeline.

According to Forbes, Dwayne pulled in $88million last year thanks to Red One and Moana 2, and it’s reported that doesn’t even include money going to his agent and lawyer.

When the latter shifted from a TV series to a cinema release, he reached a deal to get a cut of the movie’s profits as an executive producer, earning him what one agent told the outlet was an ‘ungodly amount of money’.

However, many WWE fans think Dwayne is actually delivered his best performances on shows like Raw and SmackDown with his Final Boss character.
