A Backstage Look at The Rock’s Transformation
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is renowned for his action-packed roles and remarkable physique.

Johnson wore a costume that featured the classic body of the demigod Maui to faithfully depict him.
The Difficulty of Maintaining the Set Secret
The actors and crew of “Moana” put a lot of effort into keeping the specifics of the production secret. Johnson stated in a recent interview that hiding his bodysuit from the photographers was one of the most difficult tasks.
Johnson remarked, “It was a challenge,” “It felt a little tight, and I’m not used to wearing bodysuits. But in the end, it was all worthwhile.
Johnson’s Partnership with Joel Harlow, a Makeup Artist
Johnson collaborated closely with makeup artist Joel Harlow to create Maui’s unique style. Renowned artist Harlow has contributed to a number of important motion pictures, such as “Star Trek” (2009).
“Joel is an incredible artist,” stated Johnson. “He did an amazing job of bringing Maui to life.”
The Rock’s Joy at Playing the Part

According to Johnson, “I’m so excited to be a part of this project,” “Moana is such a special story, and I can’t wait to share it with the world.”
The Live-Action Remake: A Novel Approach to a Treasured Tale
