Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is an actor who has done some marvelous movies that scale massively in the Hollywood industry. His various flicks have charted on top of the box office including the Fast and the Furious franchise as well as the Jumanji franchise. Not all of his movies have been as critically acclaimed though. Some of them have even experienced dangerous accidents.
While prop designers try their best to make the props that are used in movies look as realistic as possible, sometimes it can backfire. Sometimes the need for realistic art can lead to accidents that can prove to be fatal. Alec Benjamin was one to experience that as he accidentally killed someone with a prop gun. However, for Johnson, the case was much less intense.
The Rock Hurt Seann William Scott On Accident
Seann William Scott and Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson did a movie together, The Rundown. The movie had multiple title changes, going from Helldorado to Welcome to the Jungle, and finally settling on The Rundown. While the film did not attract that much of a crowd, a fair share of people did come to watch it. Moreover, the movie also had a great cast including Seann William Scott and Rosario Dawson. An accident that occurred on the set of the movie made everyone worry about the danger of realistic props.
During the filming of a scene, Johnson was supposed to use a prop knife that he was initially told would be blunt. He was fighting against Scott’s character and accidentally sliced his arm. The actor realized far too late that the knife was nowhere near blunt and ended up cutting open Scott’s arm. Thankfully he was not injured heavily. However, the incident did leave him to get several stitches. It was a close call and luckily there was no repeated incident like so.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Had A Cameo In The Rundown
Arnold Schwarzenegger had a surprise appearance in The Rundown. The cameo shocked various people and no one at first glance had expected the actor to be present there either. He was there as a man in the club. Coincidentally, the scene was shot on the same day as Schwarzenegger was set to appear as The Terminator during Super Bowl.
The entire cameo too was completely undecided. The actor just stumbled onto the set and hence his appearance was decided to be an on-the-spot addition. He too agreed almost immediately and was ready to make the cameo. Although the movie was a flop on the box office, everyone responsible of making the film had a lot of good time.Dwayn
