Wrestler-cum-actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson might end up wrestler-cum-actor-cum-President in a few years time. I need to stop saying cum.
Yeah honestly, Johnson tweeted in jest back in March that he would run for president as long as they allowed his pickup truck in the White House.
But was he actually fucking about? Not if you go by a new interview with him in British GQBritish GQ.

"I'll be honest, I haven't ruled politics out," Johnson told British GQ. "I'm not being coy when I say that, but at the moment I am not sure. I can't deny that the thought of being governor, the thought of being president, is alluring. And beyond that, it would be an opportunity to make a real impact on people's lives on a global scale."
Besides this, he has previously mentioned running for president before, but not governor, which is a highly feasible scenario.
But he's a busy man at the moment. He's making the Baywatch reboot, raising kids, and taking Instagram videos holding the camera at his torso.

"There are a lot of other things I want to do first," he said. And based on the rest of the interview, it seems like he's focused on his acting career right now.
"The bottom line, I am in the business of making movies for people, making content for people. And that means people all over the world. Because as soon as you start thinking on a global scale, you are making more people happy, you are making more money, you are making the studios more money, you are making everybody happy. That in turn creates more opportunity. And that's what I am looking for."
Rock, Dwayne, Johnny, if you're reading this: don't hesitate. Please do this.
Make Baywatch first. And maybe headline another Wrestlemania but then definitely do this. And follow me on Twitter.
