Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson: This is how he wants to spend Christmas

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson (52) is already looking forward to the upcoming celebration of love. As he revealed, the best thing about Christmas is “just getting the family together.”

Then the Hollywood star can recover a little from the stressful weeks and months that lie behind him. Most recently he was busy filming a live-action adaptation of “Moana” as well as promotional tours for the Christmas film “Red One” and the animated sequel “Moana 2”, in which he voices the demigod Maui.

Johnson values ​​traditions, especially for his two younger daughters – Jasmine (8) and Tiana (6). “We have little kids at home. Santa Claus is coming. That’s exciting.” That’s why the rules aren’t as strict at the festival as they are in everyday life: “We started staying up late on Christmas Eve, but not too late.” However, the children couldn’t sleep because they were so excited. “It’s hard to force them to go to bed when they can’t, like, ‘Okay, let’s stay up.'”

While waiting, “we watch a Christmas movie, then they fall asleep and then we all get ready for Santa.” His daughters always left out cookies, carrots and other treats for the reindeer. It is “crazy” and “exciting” to experience the festival with children. It takes him back to his own childhood – except that he can treat himself to food for Santa’s supposed reindeer. “It’s amazing, man.”

The actor has his eldest daughter Simone Garcia Johnson (23) from his first marriage to film producer Dany Garcia (56), which lasted from 1997 to 2008. In 2019 he married the singer Lauren Hashian (40) after ten years of relationship. The couple had two more daughters.
