Dwayne Johnson: This weekend, you have the chance to watch Denis Villeneuve’s highly anticipated Dune: Part Two at the movie theaters. The reviews for the new film have been really good, and it currently has a 96% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes. Patrick Cavanaugh from ComicBook gave the sequel a 4 out of 5 and described it as an exciting adventure.
The movie’s cast, which includes big stars, has been busy promoting the film. Rebecca Ferguson, who plays Lady Jessica, recently made headlines by talking about a former co-star who she called an “idiot” for yelling at her and making her cry. Although she clarified that it wasn’t Tom Cruise or Hugh Jackman, many people online are trying to figure out who it might be.
Ferguson worked with Dwayne Johnson, also known as The Rock, in Hercules (2014), and he showed his support for her on social media. Johnson mentioned that he hates hearing about what happened but admires Ferguson for standing up against mistreatment.
He praised her as his guardian angel on set and expressed his desire to find out who was responsible. Since there has been speculation about the identity of the actor in question, Johnson’s comment might have been influenced by those rumors. You can take a look at his tweet down there.
” I hate seeing this, but I love how she stands up to nonsense. Rebecca is like my guardian angel who came from heaven to our set. I really admire her. I want to know who did this”
I was in a movie with a total dummy of a co-star, and this person was really insecure and mad because they couldn’t remember their lines,” Ferguson shared during an interview on the Reign With Josh Smith podcast. “I felt really scared and uneasy, so they yelled at me and I would cry when I left the set.”
This guy would actually stare at me right in front of everyone and say, ‘You think you’re an actor? This is what I have to deal with?’ I just stood there, feeling shattered,” Ferguson explained. “Since this guy was the top actor on the list, I had no support system. Nobody had my back.”
