Why Did Dwayne Johnson Name His Production House ‘Seven Bucks’?
Johnson is one of the most successful and highest-paid actors on this planet. But just like many, he also started out small and has seen some rough days initially in his career.
In 2012, he co-founded the production company Seven Bucks Productions with his ex-wife Dany Garcia. He also owns an advertising agency under the same name. It is in remembrance of the day when he only had seven bucks in his pocket.
In 1995, Johnson was asked to leave the Canadian Football League where he couldn’t make it to the final list. The wrestler-turned-actor frequently mentions that day in his interviews and videos.
His company has produced several films that have minted millions, like ‘Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle’, ‘Hobbs And Shaw, ‘Fighting With Family’ and ‘Rampage’ among others.
