Dwayne was filming an upcoming movie called the Red Notice while recording a chase scene where he was required to get into a Porsche and do the scene. After he was done with that scene he knew he could easily get out of the car but this time he couldn’t
“And guess who is too big to fit in yet another sports car and now we have to change the entire shot sequence around …
My writer/director for the Red Notice wrote this insane chase sequence where I hop in this iconic Porsche and be the bad ass behind the wheel that I am.
Well, after months of preps and cost buying and shipping this car over the states –it’s time to rehearse the big chase sequence.
It goes as follows:
DJ: let’s do it
* DJ attempts to get in the car only to get stuck because his back is a bit too wide
Rawson: wait can you fit?
DJ: No
*Rawson now nervously laughs
Rawson: are you fucking with me?
DJ: no
Rawson: oh my God
After about 15 seconds of uncomfortable silence … Rawson, myself and the entire crew just started laughing our asses off.
Fuck it welcome 2020
In the end we showed our agility to think quickly on our feet and found a creative way to still get the shot
This was one of the many times his body let him down while on set .
