Dwayne Johnson once changed agents after they doubted he could become bigger than Will Smith

Dwayne Johnson has revealed he once changed agents after his representatives voiced scepticism that he could be as big as stars such as George Clooney or Will Smith.

Writes the outlet: “He went to his agents and said, despite whatever recent setbacks he’d experienced, he had an idea, or simply an ambition: He wanted to have the career of George Clooney or Will Smith.

A new interview with GQ saw Johnson discuss the change, which took place shortly after launching his acting career.
