Actor Dwayne Johnson is eating some good food this Thanksgiving!
Johnson, also known as The Rock, has had a busy year. After he starred in Disney’s “Jungle Cruise” alongside Emily Blunt, he also made a splash with Netflix’s “Red Notice,” alongside “Deadpool” star Ryan Reynolds and “Wonder Woman” GalGadot.
Johnson was also training for his role in DC’s “Black Adam,” which has an anticipated release date of July 29, 2022. Johnson had to put on a lot of muscle for the role of the legendary comic book superhero, which means he had to do a lot of eating.
Luckily, he has his very own Chef Puttie to help him out!
