Dwayne Johnson Talks About Wearing Tattooed Bodysuit While Filming Live Action ‘Moana’


"That is a couple of hours every day of transforming, putting that on," said the actor of the bodysuit.

While Dwayne Johnson is certainly no slacker when it comes to muscles and tattoos, the actor has revealed that he’s worn a bodysuit while shooting Disney ‘s live-action Moana movie. After paparazzi caught Johnson in character on set, he was asked recently by Extra if he had “bulked up” for the live-action role, given that his physique looked different in the photos. I wear this culture proudly on my skin and in my soul, and this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reunite with Maui, inspired by the mana and spirit of my late grandfather, High Chief Peter Maivia, is one that runs very deep for me.”
