Emily Blunt ghosted Dwayne Johnson while they were trying to get on the same page about Jungle Cruise. The duo has been everywhere in promotion of the Disney film, but it took some convincing for the actress to take on this project. In a new feature from The Hollywood Reporter, the WWE Superstar claims that he concocted a stunt to get her to consider the script. Director Jaume Collet-Serra was going to hand-deliver the pages to her in New York City. But, The Rock wanted to put a little extra on that. He recorded a special video trying to communicate how badly the team wanted Blunt to be a part of the picture. After going through multiple versions, it became clear that they had found a winner. One small problem, the star never responded to the overtures from Johnson. She joked, “I thought the video was sweet. Didn’t know you were going to be so sensitive.”
All aboard Disney’s #JungleCruise!
