The philosophy has always been pretty clean and straightforward, which is that if I see something that I like and I can see it's value to the audience and it's value to me then I'm going to take my shot at it regardless at the genre.

More quotes by Dwayne Johnson
William Regal, what does besmirched mean?
Dwayne Johnson
I believe I'm not in the press, just in terms of being photographed and paparazzi all the time, or looking for that sensationalistic type of side or anything like that, so I keep things very quiet.
Dwayne Johnson
I'm sorry, Mankind can't get to the phone right now, cause he's got The Rock's foot in his mouth!
Dwayne Johnson
I never wanted to stay in one genre I never wanted to be pigeon-holed or defined as the actor who only worked in one genre. I want to be able to work in all different genres. For me it's fun, and that's how I grow as an actor.
Dwayne Johnson
I didn't want to play by what rules are in Hollywood.
Dwayne Johnson
Steven Spielberg has this great quote: Moviemaking is always about noise. There's so many voices that you've gotta listen to. But you've always got to pay attention to the one voice that's in your gut that always tells you it's still not good enough.
Dwayne Johnson
It's what I've learned over the years that has pushed me beyond limits.
Dwayne Johnson
One of the most important things you can accomplish is just being yourself.
Dwayne Johnson
I can usually get the right connection with the crowd and I don't have to be jumping off ladders.
Dwayne Johnson
Creating things I think, especially as an actor - wanting to bring to the table things that have never been done before, but also making sure they're of high quality and not having a fear.
Dwayne Johnson
When you're in sync with the director, on the type of movie you want to make, the arc of the characters, how the characters intertwine and interact, plotlines and story, and things like that, it really makes a difference.
Dwayne Johnson
I've learned over the years that when it comes to success, consistency is key. Consistent hard work that we may not like doing today, but for a payoff we'll love tomorrow. Earn it. Enjoy it.
Dwayne Johnson
I like the idea of working in different genres and transcending genres and hopefully finding success, and ultimately make movies people like.
Dwayne Johnson
The jabroni beating, pie eating, trail-blazin', eyebrow raisin', all around, smack it down People's Champ, The Rock!
Dwayne Johnson
Any time I'm on-screen it is realistic because I don't pull my punches or anything like that.
Dwayne Johnson
The goal with me, and the way I challenge myself as an actor, is to go from genre to genre. I like that. A lot of actors always challenge themselves. But for me the challenge lies not only in getting better, but going from drama to comedy to action or whatever the case may be, and having a wide array of movies in terms of my filmography.
Dwayne Johnson
Around 2010 - I took a long look at everybody I had around me because I wanted to make sure they were aligned with how I felt. I'm not ashamed of who I am or where I came from or the size God gave me. There was a large percentage of people who weren't [on the same page]. So I really shook up my team.
Dwayne Johnson
Wrestling was like stand-up comedy for me.
Dwayne Johnson
I'm more patriotic than I am political - I appreciate politics but I'm not quite too sure if that's a road I'm willing to go down.
Dwayne Johnson
There was a time in my life when opportunities were so few and far between they were like little cracks in the wall, and if one opportunity came my way, I would scratch and claw and bite and I would do anything I could to make sure that I grabbed that opportunity by the throat and I did not let it go.
