'you Can't See Me'? What Are You

What Matters Is Performances, Regardless Of What The Name Is, Whether It's The Rock - Which Is My Nickname And People Call Me That All The Time - It's No Big Deal. So, Whether It's The Rock Or Dwayne Johnson, In Terms Of Being Recognised I Just Think That The Goal Is To Be Recognised As A Good Actor. I Don't Put Much Thought Or Weight Into The Name, Or The Name Change, Or What It Is, Or What Does It Mean? It's Just A Nickname.

In My Mind At That Time, At 14, The Men Who Were Successful Were Stallone And Schwarzenegger And Guys Like That - Harrison Ford - Who Were These Men Of Action. I Was Like, "okay, They're Successful, They're Not Getting Evicted, They Built Their Bodies - I'm Gonna Go Build My Body." It Was Like That.

It's Easy To Be A Bad Ass, It's Easy To Act Like A Bad Ass, Easy To Act Like A Tough Guy, It's Easy To Be A Diva, And It's Easy To Be Self Absorbed. The List Goes On And On But To Me, I Always Just Find It More Important To Be Nice And Kind.

I'm A Long Way From Being Evicted [at The Age Of 14], But I'll Never Forget It. I'll Never Forget The Feeling. I'll Never Forget My Mom Crying And I'll Never Forget The Thought I Had: 'well The Only Thing I Can Do Is Just Go Build My Body,' Because The Men Who Were Successful That I Knew Of - Stallone, Arnold, Bruce Willis - They Were Men Of Action.

I Would Just Say That I Could Share What Served Me, Which Was Trying To Find The Best Material That I Could Possibly Find And Make It Better. When Other Celebrities And Sports Stars, Or People That Are Successful In Another Area, Cross Over Into Movies, They're Always Encouraged To Bring That Same Tenacity And That Same Relentless Drive That You Had To Make It. You Have To Apply That To Acting.
