Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson becomes Highest Paid Actor in History

Dwayne Johnson is now the highest paid actor in history. According to Forbes, the wrestler turned international movie star brought in a staggering $124 million last year. The Rock took it to Instagram to celebrate his success posting on his social media page

"I work extremely hard but never anticipated (in my wildest dreams) I'd become the highest paid actor in Forbes' history. I don't have a Harvard MBA, but my business philosophy and acumen has been sharpened over time and thru failure. My goal when I was wrestling in flea markets for $40bucks per match (well before the bright lights of the @wwe) is still the exact same goal I have today, always put my audience first. I have one boss, the world. Send you home happy, and I've done my job. I'm the dude who started w/ $7bucks. I'm grateful to the bone and hungry to the core. #MakingForbesHistory #AudienceFirstPhilosophy #FleaMarketDreams #HardestWorkerInTheRoom"

The Rock's latest movie Skyscraper is now in theaters, following the success of Rampage and Jumanji, welcome to the Jungle. The Rock is also set to star in next year's DCEU Block buster SHAZAM as Black Adam. Things aren't showing any signs of slowing down for Johnson. He's got Disney's The Jungle Cruise filming now, with the Fast and Furious spin-off Hobbs and Shaw coming after that. He's also got the Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle sequel. Things will only get better for the former WWE star.
