Wrestler turned Actor Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock has been one of the biggest superstars of the American film and television industry. His amazing acting skills have been phenomenal and well-lauded. However, his poor on-set behaviours have always put him in bad books. 

Now again in the latest news report, it has been revealed that Dwayne Johnson’s poor behaviour has troubled the production house. His tardiness ballooned the production costs of Red One by at least $50 million. According to the report, Dwayne consistently arrived on the film set 7-8 hours late almost every day, causing significant production delays. 

This habit often compelled the crew to adjust their shooting schedules to accommodate his tardiness. An insider revealed, "The only predictable aspect of Dwayne's behaviour was his chronic lateness." Sources claim that his habitual tardiness inflated the production costs of Red One by a minimum of $50 million. Currently, the production expenses amount to $250 million for the much-delayed film. 

Dwayne Johnson peed in bottles! 

Another thing people are talking about is Dwayne's habit of peeing in water bottles. Dwayne has mentioned before that he does this when he's working out. But now, a new report says that on earlier movie sets, Dwayne would have someone get rid of the bottles for him. 

An insider said that if Dwayne needs to pee on set, he uses a Voss water bottle instead of going to the public bathroom, and then his team or someone from the production team has to throw it away. However, the people working on the movie Red One said they didn't see this happen during filming.

Apart from that Dwayne Johnson has had some problems with his co-stars also, Vin Diesel from the Fast and Furious series and Ryan Reynolds from Red Notice. There's been talk about Dwayne and Vin not getting along for a while. But it seems Dwayne and Ryan also had a big fight and didn't talk to each other for years. 

According to a news report by The Wrap, once Dwayne was five hours late to the set of their Netflix movie. Ryan was really angry, they argued a lot, and Dwayne left the set upset. Notably, Dwayne's next movie is called The Smashing Machine. It's a biopic about a UFC fighter named Mark Kerr, and it's directed by Ben Safdie.
