Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was named Entertainer of the Year in GQ’s 2024 Men of the Year issue.
To celebrate it, Johnson participated in the GQ Video Cover Story, a feature that delivers all the access and depth of a classic GQ print profile, but does it via long-form digital video.
The 30-minute video features reporter Zach Baron and it is directed by Cole Evelev and Noel Howard.
“It’s hard for Dwayne Johnson to hide. Wherever he goes, there he is — as conspicuous out in the world as he is on the silver screen,” the print profile says. “But after two decades of playing a version of himself in huge movies, suddenly he is ready to do something entirely new: vanish.”
You can see the video and read the feature at GQ.com.
Pretty cool and humbling to be this year’s first #GQMOTY cover star.
I sat with @zachbaron for this feature and we talked a lot about how it’s hard for me to “hide,” as we sat on the porch at my farm, which is the place I go to step away from the noise.
